@rjsaulakh@rishuraj_chd First of all transplanting requires extremely expert, technical know how and there is, nobody qualified enough in all of India to do this
@vijayantkatyal@rishuraj_chd That is not important. You cannot replace an ecosystem which is already existing for the last years. This is not a solution.
@rishuraj_chd What a lame reply !!! I would request you to come with me to the spot and I will show you how much space is there to make the track without cutting 1 tree. It is shameful that instead of doing positive reporting you’re supporting the wrong ! Disgraceful
Intense heatwave and Chandigarh on a tree cutting spree. When the entire country is advised how to protect themselves from #Heatwave. Ridiculously ridiculous. There wasn’t the need to cut these trees. These trees are not obstruction . The road is wide enough. Cycle track is already there. These trees were guy grown Eucalyptus trees. Somehow I am seeing eucalyptus trees are the ones being cut all over Chandigarh, in Panjab University, Sector 9 , last year in sector 7 as well. The cost of eucalyptus timber generally ranges from ₹400 to ₹900 per cubic foot depending on the region and wood quality. For bulk quantities or industrial use (e.g., pulp, poles, or firewood), it typically costs between ₹10,000 to ₹12,000 per metric tonne. Why just eucalyptus? Idea is to save trees not cut them @ManishTewari@INCIndia@AAPChandigar@icareforlungs
Thr major bottleneck is Hallomajra Chowk and Poultry Farm Lights,
Just proper planning can avoid the flyover and destruction of city & it's trees. Just you need is right intent and right team @ManishTewari@RahulGandhi

@sanjeevdusgotra@ShivrattanDhil1 I can shoe you atleast 50 houses where the owners have cut the tree by showing it to be dangerous or killed it by putting salt in the roots , what they have done is 100% appreciable because it’s very easy to get permission for rich and powerful to get permission to cut a tree
It is really weird when people talk about Heritage of Chandigarh. The real Heritage of Chandigarh are the villages that were displaced. The real Heritage were these villages. Let's live in harmony and not look down upon those who gave their land. What these people got was a well designed and well planned city, they mix up " planning, architecture with heritage" .
On the first page of one of Le Corbusier's notebooks, which was later known as “Album Punjab,” he wrote, “Shall we go so far as to destroy the villages?” and, immediately after, commented on the need to “re-establish the natural conditions” and “preserve the peasants’ pathways.” Later that day, he wrote of his desire to “maintain the country routes with the trees and their width as they cross through the city.”
I request @PMOIndia to look into the Rock Garden matter. Sir it is of grave concern that orders were given out to demolish a wall that had artwork of Nek Chand ji.
How did we become fans of Talibans ? They destroyed beautiful monuments of historical importance , the Bambiyan statutes . Demolition of this part of Rock Garden shows the insensitivity of those who gave these order .
Requesting the @chandigarhadm to announce to the general public that the rock garden is illegal and cutting of 100s of trees is legal !
@PMOIndia pls save our city @samitakaur74@moefcc
Honoured to be invited as Chief Guest at International Women’s Day 8th Edition Saree Run 2025 organised by @RunClubIndia
This event was not just about running; it’s about breaking barriers, embracing confidence, and inspiring the next generation. It’s a reminder that women are unstoppable—whether in boardrooms, on sports fields, in their homes, or running with pride.

THE WALL IS DOWN !
ROCK GARDEN is the just the tip of the iceberg. It’s incredibly frustrating when those in place of power fail to recognize the value of preserving our environment and heritage #chandigarh we failed #nekchand
Chandigarh Rock Garden की दीवार तोड़ने और पेड़ों को काटने का विवाद थमता नजर नहीं आ रहा है।
रोजाना की तरह कई लोग रॉक गार्डन के पास पोस्टर लेकर खड़े थे। आज पुलिस पहुंच गई और परमिशन दिखाने को कहा।
काफी बहस हुई, सुनिए...
If you have time to spare @ManishTewari hear Neelam Man Singh speak. I fail to understand if a thing isn't 100 yrs old its isn't a? When did Heritage come between art and trees ? Ridiculous indeed.
Views from today, the trees in this area are absolutely fantastic. Remember the song "big yellow taxi" which says "they paved paradise to put up a parking lot". These are concerned citizens fighting for nature, and to preserve the space they live in.
