Students on the UoH move feel it’s unfair.
Students condemned the suggestion as a ‘diversion attempt’ by the state administration to divert attention from the ongoing issue surrounding the 400-acre area, even though there is no official word on its destiny. One of the environmental activist says, “Some individuals proposed the CM to develop the world’s largest eco park, with the tallest watchtower, creating much needed lung space for the city. However, there is no decision taken yet on the issue. The government is trying to mislead the public.”

A student union leader who had previously demonstrated against the government over deforestation at Kancha Gachibowli, arguing that the institution owns the property, stated that a 100-acre plot of land being exchanged for 1,600 acres was unfair.
