Mumbai, July 10: A residents' group has urged the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to immediately remove two dangerous trees inside the Holy Cross School premises in Kurla West, warning that they pose a serious threat to students.
According to Alexander D'Souza, president of the Premier Road Kurla Citizens' Forum, one tree collapsed early on Wednesday morning when the school was closed, averting a possible tragedy.
He alleged that despite repeated complaints to the BMC's L Ward office, the local corporator and the Garden Department, no action had initially been taken.
