Update to controversy about AdiYogi statue constructed in Forest land

Inspite of having written a detailed post earlier (https://medium.com/@bigfundu/did-isha-kill-a-forest-to-make-adiyogi-statue-f63917054f96) on how I see that there was no forest harmed for the construction of AdiYogi statue, many people have reached out to me online with their own doubts.

I have repeatedly suggested using Google Earth Pro to find out for themselves. Am posting here some of the Google Earth Pro images from last 8 years of the lands where AdiYogi statue is currently located.

AdiYogi Statue lands — 2011
AdiYogi Statue lands — 2013
AdiYogi Statue lands — 2014
AdiYogi Statue lands — 2016
AdiYogi Statue lands — 2019

As can be clearly seen from these images, right from 2011 to 2019, the surrounding lands are only agricultural lands and obviously no forest has been destroyed for the AdiYogi statue!

Also, it can be clearly seen that the lands within the circle where the AdiYogi statue is, have not been used for even agriculture in the past 8 years (at least). These lands were essentially unused agri lands that were declassified as wet lands and repurposed for construction later.

If someone is not convinced with this clear a proof, I do not know what else can convince them other than visitng the place directly and figuring out for themselves. Do not believe in any rumours, technology is ubiquitous these days. You can find out the truth easily, if only you wish to.
