मयूर विहार, फेज-1 मेट्रो स्टेशन (दिल्ली) से उतरते ही सड़क के दाहिने तरफ एक बड़ा पार्क है. आस-पास के तमाम लोग वहीं घूमने आते हैं और इस पार्क का कोई विकल्प नहीं. लेकिन अब यह पार्क मेट्रो प्रोजेक्ट की भेंट चढ़ने जा रहा है. आज यहाँ इसके विरोध में प्रदर्शन भी किया गया, लेकिन सुनने वाला कोई नहीं. मेट्रो की सुविधा के लिए पार्क और हरियाली से वंचित किया जा रहा है. यह कैसी प्रगति है? अजय सिंह की रिपोर्ट :
Yet again one green belt is under the threat of being lost forever in the name of so called development. An old park with several full grown trees at Garuda Apartments,Mayur Vihar Phase I , Pocket IV,New Delhi near Mayur Vihar , Phase I Metro Station has come under the threat of being overtaken by the Metro Railway Project for its expansion plan for Trilokpuri area .
metro-park3Several people residing in this area and nearby areas have been visiting this park for several years specially in the mornings for morning walk and physical exercise. It was a popular play area for children as well.The anger and sadness could well be seen on the faces of the people with children also coming out of their homes with banners in their hands and protesting against this step of the government as this will deprive them of their greenbelt which they love so much.
Is someone listening ????????????
metro-park5Where will we humans stop at ? Do we want to create only concrete jungle around us and not let other species survive ? In that case how long will human race itself survive ?
MEDIA KHABAR appeals to its readers to plant and save more and more trees as that only is the key to the survival of the mankind.
