Over 800 trees were uprooted in Mumbai due to Cyclone Tauktae, and more are expected to fall during the monsoon. But Mumbai’s fallen trees could survive if replanted, and so city-based nature lovers have come forward to do this. One of them, Sanjeev Valsan, started a crowd funding campaign to replant the fallen trees. He and a group of nature lovers have replanted a few fallen trees in Aarey Milk Colony and in coming days will transplant more.
