“The Organization has not only emphasized that trees along the Metro Route alignment should not just be protected, but it has also ensured transplantation of trees in the process, not just at Nagpur but also during execution of Pune Metro project.

The officials of Garden Department of Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) had conducted spot inspection to take stock of the situation and had issued a letter to Maha Metro raising certain queries. However, all this notwithstanding, Maha Metro has taken serious cognizance of the notice board and its content and plans to initiate against the concerned official,” Maha Metro asserted.
