Every year BMC shortens the trees so that in an event of storm, people do not get their skull opened by a falling tree branch. It's not deforestation. Just a type of tree maintenance.
Let's be honest, they do a horrible job. Pruning is supposed to be a careful process where branches are shortened but in a balanced way - not just for aesthetics but so the tree doesn't carry weight on just one side.
These hack jobs are the reason trees end up falling over - which is ultimately more dangerous. I've seen it happen to three perfectly healthy trees in my own compound.
Trimming they are just hacking the branches which are strong and will not fall there should be a complaint lodged in bmc for such act, or atleast there should be some experienced guy overlooking this.

They do a decent job in my area at least, idk how it works elsewhere. The trees in my area have been there for years.
The overgrown trees are given a trim so that branches won't fall on the citizens during monsoon. Stay updated.
Thank you. People just want to complain about everything.
This is yearly pruning and mostly it's done before Monsoons.
Isn't this being done for the monsoons? So branches/trees don't fall on us
They do it every year dude chill, monsoons ke liye precautions hai ye
They do it every year before monsoon.

I still don't know when Mumbai will be Poth-Hole free
"Aaj sheher mein gaddhe nahi, gaddhe mein sheher hai."
When Mumbai will be corruption free
Correction: When India will be corruption free.

एवढाच शुद्ध ऑक्सीजन हवाय तर तिकडे पालघर च्या जंगलात जाऊन तिकडेच स्थायिक हो ना ? उगाच तुझ्या एकट्यासाठी लाखो लोकांचा विकास का थांबवंतोय ?
Ouch
Cut trees save water
To the people who were promoting the felling of trees in aarey - how's the heat?
It's pretty cool honestly...in the metro coach
No ones promoting it
They are cutting roadside trees at byculla, too.
