PUPune’s metro expansion is now at the centre of a growing environmental debate. Citizens and activists allege large-scale tree cutting, lack of transparency, and limited public consultation in project approvals.
Experts warn that such infrastructure projects could lead to massive carbon emissions, requiring millions of trees to offset the damage. Concerns are also rising over the potential impact on Pune’s climate, with fears of worsening urban heat and long-term weather changes.
Citizen groups are demanding a review of the project, eco-friendly alternatives, and greater public participation before further approvals.
Is development coming at the cost of Pune’s environment?
