Mumbai Aarey Forest Protest: Farhan Akhtar, Dia Mirza, Swara Bhasker And Others Angry Over Midnight Cutting Of 400 Trees
A massive Aarey protest is being going on since last night. Bollywood celebs are taking to social media to show their anger and disgust against the government's move to suddenly cut 400 trees in Aarey at midnight
And it has begun! The lungs of Mumbai will be cut as per the
Bombay HC order. The Government authorities took to the Aarey forest to cut
down 400 trees before they could be stopped, at midnight. Now Bollywood celebs
are taking to social media espresso their anger against the government's sudden
to move to chop trees.
As chopping of trees began at midnight, locals and activists
reached Aarey to protest against it. Yesterday, Bombay High Court has dismissed
all the petitions against BMC and the state government's decision to clear the
forest area. Taking to social media, Bollywood celebs like Farhan Akhtar, Dia
Mirza and Swara Bhasker among others have tweeted on this covert operation that
the government conducted at night.
Farhan Akhtar wrote, “Cutting trees at night is a pathetic attempt at trying to get away with something even those doing it know is wrong. #Aarey #GreenIsGold #Mumbai
