MNS Chief Raj Thackeray on Saturday opposed the cutting of trees to build ‘Sadhu Gram’ ahead of the Kumbh Mela in Nashik and said the BJP government should not allow the issue to escalate.
Raj Thackeray accused the government of opportunism. The MNS Chief said that the government is planning to cut trees on the pretext of Kumbh Mela and then donate the land to its favorite industrialists.
Sadhu Gram is being planned in 1,200 acres of Tapovan area ahead of the Kumbh Mela starting from October 31, 2026. Earlier this month, 1,670 trees were marked for removal, some of which are said to be more than 100 years old.
