Assistant superintendent of PMC Garden Department, Preeti Sinha said trees posing a potential hazard or dangerously slanting trees are being trimmed or pruned year-round in each of the 14 wards of the city.u00a0

“We have set up a separate office in each ward to monitor trees which are tilting or with roots exposed. The ones posing a danger have been uprooted after taking the requisite permissions, and native saplings have been planted in their place. We ensure that this year there will be minimum damage,” Sinha said.
