Respected Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, I respectfully submit this complaint regarding the cutting of trees along the roadside in our area. Last year, the dried and damaged trees were removed, which was understandable; however, from the past week, healthy, fully grown green trees of different types are also being cut down without any clear reason. This action is deeply concerning because, on one hand, the Government of Punjab is running extensive plantation and environmental protection campaigns, while on the other hand, mature trees that have been growing for many years and provide shade, reduce pollution, support biodiversity, and enhance the beauty of our surroundings are being removed. These old trees play a significant role in maintaining ecological balance and improving the environment, and their removal is negatively affecting both environmental sustainability and the aesthetic value of the area. I humbly request your immediate attention to investigate this matter, stop the unnecessary cutting of healthy trees, and ensure strict measures for environmental protection in line with the government’s plantation initiatives.
Maryam Nawaz Sharif
