✦AI Summary
Several trees were felled on Kaifi Azmi Road in Hyderabad to make way for a new vehicle underpass project. While authorities cited health issues for the removal, local activists dispute these claims, noting the trees appeared healthy.
Shor yunhi na parindon ne machaya hoga... Koi jangal ki taraf shahr se aaya hoga... Ped ke katne walon ko ye malum toh tha... Jism jal jaenge jab sar pe na saaya hoga . When legendary poet Kaifi Azmi penned this melancholic verse more than 40 years ago, little did he know that it would speak to the trees on the very road named after him in Hyderabad.
