about the gallery

HT has been featuring iconic trees of Delhi, underscoring their importance in the life of the city. The series was launched on June 26, when the plan to axe 14,000 trees for redeveloping government housing projects in south Delhi made headlines. On July 4, the Delhi high court restrained authorities from felling of trees. Here is the latest in a series of collections aiming to acquaint readers with the city’s green residents –some of whom are rare specimens or even older than many heritage structures in the city.
