Mumbai's BMC to Prune Trees on Private Land

Mumbai's BMC to Prune Trees on Private Land

Mumbai's city government will now cut trees on private land to stop them from falling during the rainy season.

This is because some trees have fallen recently, causing harm.

The city will check trees and tell owners to trim risky ones.

If owners don't, the city will do it and maybe charge them.

This is to keep people safe during the heavy rains and strong winds that often come during the monsoon.

The city also wants people to help by reporting any trees that look weak or overgrown.
