Once lush, green, and rich in biodiversity — now a concrete shadow of its past. In the name of "tourism development", acres of forest were cleared. Satellite images reveal shocking deforestation between August and December 2021. Locals raised their voices, only to be told it was for a 5-star resort. Turns out, it was allegedly a luxury residence for Andhra’s ex-CM. 7 massive buildings. Over ₹500 crore spent. Imported interiors. All built in an ecologically sensitive zone, despite public protests. Now the new government is stuck with this mess. Should this illegal structure be demolished? Repurposed? Or turned into a public space?
