Saved 7000 trees from illegal cutting and felling in South Delhi



Successfully represented one of the most decorated medical practitioners in India Prof. Dr. Sanjeev Bagai (recipient of Padam Shri and Dr. BC Roy Award from the President of India) before the National Green Tribunal and High Court of Delhi in a petition to save around 7000 trees from illegal cutting and felling in South Delhi. Cutting and felling of around 7000 trees would have led to irreparable damage to the environment especially in one of the greenest localities of Delhi and severely impacted the health of elderly and children. Action by 3 individual citizens to protect environment and green cover of Delhi was widely covered by the national print and electronic media.
