The authorities are still refusing to provide a clear explanation for this destruction. Each day feels like an uphill battle against people who do not care about the history of this town. I am exhausted by the silence but I refuse to let these trees disappear without a fight.

Please Stop Cutting Trees without any planning. If one tree falls down in monsoon, The municipality Cuts down bunch of trees without knowing how important they are!, And if itnis necessary to cut down a tree why don't we plant a new one at same spot?
This is absolute madness. VVN is known for its greenery and these people are destroying the soul of our town just because of one incident. Stop this now!
So painful to see our beautiful roads becoming barren. These old trees are the identity of Vidyanagar. Save them before it is too late.
Shame on the authorities for using police to cut down trees. You are ruining the legacy of Bhaikaka. Leave our trees alone!!!
Cutting trees is not the solution for safety. Trim the branches if needed but dont kill the whole tree. We need shade not concrete roads.
Don't cut trees , save environment
Before cutting tree administration should put evidence more plantation done

Earth का कुछ करो वरना UnEarth हो जायेगा......Brazil had 301 billion trees (1,494 per person), Canada 318 billion (8,953 per person), and China 139 billion (102 trees per person). Among highly populous countries, India (population, 1.267 billion) had a tree population of only 35 billion, leading to just 28 trees per person. How low you still want to go???
