Mahadevapura, Bengaluru

Inaugurated on April, 2021- continuing

Background

To create and maintain a “Breathing Zone” for the Whitefield community by developing and sustaining a 22-acre urban forest landscape.
Sumadhura Group transformed the forest’s front portion into a lush, green recreational space with a beautifully designed artificial hill water fountain and landscaped entrance, offering visitors a refreshing escape from the urban environment.

Project Overview

Community Engagement & Support

As part of its CSR commitment to environmental conservation, Sumadhura Group took the initiative to enhance the Kadugodi Tree Park, a key green lung space in Whitefield.
In collaboration with the Karnataka Forest Department and other Whitefield-based corporates, the park was developed into a complete recreational ecosystem featuring
The park was inaugurated by former Chief Minister Mr. B.S. Yediyurappa in April 2021, marking the beginning of a new urban environmental initiative.
Sumadhura further reinforced its commitment by signing an MoU with the Forest Department for an initial three-year maintenance period (2021–2024), which has now been extended by an additional three years, up to 2027, to ensure ongoing care, cleanliness, and preservation of the park’s greenery.

The Forest Department has played a pivotal role throughout the project’s development and ongoing conservation efforts. Sumadhura appreciates the volunteers and environmental enthusiasts whose dedication helped sustain this vital green space. The initiative continues to promote eco-awareness, urban biodiversity, and community well-being among the Whitefield residents.
