In a development that sheds light on the dubiousness of tree transplantation, a portion of a transplantation site at Aarey Milk Colony has been cleared and levelled. In 2016-2017, some trees were transplanted on this plot. Recently, when mid-day visited the spot, it was found that a major portion of the plot had been levelled to create space for drying cattle dung.

A nature lover who has been a regular visitor to Aarey Milk Colony for morning and evening walks informed this reporter about the development recently.
