Nature lovers in the Oshiwara-Lokhandwala belt were shocked to learn that a healthy full-grown palm tree was cut on Thursday. They suspect a private developer had ordered the chopping of the tree, which stood in front of the gate of a building in Oshiwara. On Thursday morning, local resident Roshan Mansukhani was sitting in his flat when he heard loud sounds.
“Immediately, I went to the window and I was shocked to see a healthy tree in front of The Park, Oshiwara, next to Shantivan Society, being cut by some people. My wife immediately rushed down to see what was happening but by the time she reached there, the tree had already been felled and the people who allegedly cut it had loaded it onto a truck and fled,” said Mansukhani.
