I have a plot in Ambala which is in Haryana and there are 3 pipal trees in that plot. I raised a request to our local forest officeer to give me an approval to remove those trees and can let me know what fees needs to be paid or where alternate trees needs to be planted. I got a reply from him that peepal is the state tree of Haryana and since Amabal is in Haryana they will not allow removal cutting of those trees from my private property.
I am not sure how can i proceed further on this as i need to construct my property and the DFO is not allowing holding the plea that Peepal is the state tree.
Please help.
