Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) chief Tushar Giri Nath put the Sankey flyover project on hold and said that it would be reviewed. He said that the tree-cutting proposal would be withdrawn. This comes after many residents, activists and experts opposed the project. About 2,000 students had written to Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai to stop the flyover's construction.
