Jaipur’s Last Forest Faces Axe: Dol Ka Badh to Be Cleared for Malls & Concrete

The Rajasthan government and RIICO plan to build a PM Unity Mall, fintech park, and residential complexes on this 105-acre ecological haven, sparking fierce protests from environmentalists, locals, and activists. As bulldozers arrive and trees fall, the fight intensifies: can the city afford to lose its final patch of wild nature for yet another mall?
