 Passing under this 40-foot-tall tree causes terror since it has turned into a threat to onlookers' lives.

A massive semra tree, estimated to be 40 feet tall and years old, is erected at Taradehi Tirahe of Tendukheda Municipal Council.

Damoh/Arpit Barkul. At Taradehi Tirahe of Tendukheda Municipal Council, 52 kilometres from the Damoh district headquarters of Madhya Pradesh, a massive Semra tree that is around 40 feet high was planted years ago. whose fragile limbs frequently break during severe gusts and storms and land on the tops of travellers, bystanders, and store owners who have set up shop beneath the tree. This tree has turned into a threat to the lives of local business owners and bystanders. In the past, this disaster has claimed the lives of numerous people as well.

Unseasonal rains and high winds are still present during Nautpa in the rural areas. Due to the high wind gust in this scenario, the tree begins to swing swiftly. Shop owners and onlookers are alarmed upon seeing this. While the Municipal Council's Public Works Department is in charge of clipping the thorns from the trees close to the city's important crossroads, close to bridges and culverts, due to violent storms. But the responsible individuals steered clear of it. Near the Semra tree, who had previously notified the PWD and NAPA and demanded removal of the tree, Jain families had built homes.

As a result of falling tree branches, numerous persons have been hurt.

We all become breathless when the tree trembles in a severe wind, according to chaat vendor Kallu Jain. In times of high winds, branches frequently snap and fall on humans. The previous day, a motorcyclist was also struck by a falling tree branch.

The tree is around 50 feet tall, according to Abhishek Jain, who lives close by. This dates back years. The powerful winds that occur during the rainy season cause tree limbs to break and fall, obstructing traffic and frequently injuring regular people. We submitted a request to the Tendukheda Municipal Council, but up until this point, no one in charge has given it any thought.

Prem Singh Chauhan, CMO of the Municipal Council, advised me that because I had just arrived, I should go see it for myself because I lacked knowledge. The rules will be followed in taking action. If it is in a position to be removed, it will be done so with the Forest Department's agreement. Weeding, for example, will be done if it is necessary.
