Why is this Hyderabad Forest in Danger?

Remember the Akshay Kumar film Joker, where a whole village didn’t exist on India’s map? Well, Hyderabad just did that — with a forest. Kancha Gachibowli, 400 acres of lush green land near the University of Hyderabad, is being wiped out to make way for an IT park worth ₹50,000 crore. The catch? On paper, this forest doesn’t even exist. It's marked as "grazing land." But locals, students, and activists say this so-called "invisible forest" is crucial — it cools the city, recharges groundwater, and shelters over 450 species. Bulldozers began tearing through it as peacocks cried. This reel uncovers what’s at stake — and how the Telangana High Court’s recent intervention might just be the pause this forest needs. Could legal rights for forests — like in New Zealand — be the way forward for India too? 🟢 Watch. Reflect.
