Tree planting has started for the "Devlet Bahçeli Memorial Forest", which is intended to be built in memory of the nationalist right party MHP Chair Devlet Bahçeli, on Kırklar Mountain, in the Sur district of Diyarbakır. MHP Provincial Presidency is carrying out excavations in the area where the saplings will be planted with a scoop belonging to a private company. In addition to the excavation, two concrete columns were built at the place where the sign would be erected.

MHP Diyarbakir Provincial Chair Cihan Kayaalp also announced on his digital media account that he carried out an inspection on site.
