Kumbh Mela Tree Felling Sparks Protests

There's a big argument in Nashik, India.

The city wants to cut down 1,825 trees to make a special place for holy men during a big religious event called Kumbh Mela in 2027.

Many people, including a famous activist named Anna Hazare, are upset because they want to save the trees.

The leader of the state, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, says they will try not to cut down trees unless it's really necessary.

People are protesting and asking for a different place to be used instead of cutting down the trees.

The area where the trees are is very green and important, so everyone is trying to find a solution that works for both the event and the environment.
