Many thanks to our Indian army they keep lots of open space intact, planted save them from pirate of lands. You move from here to other part of road specifically Pimple Saudagar and everything is gone, only remain is jungle of concrete.We have planted many sapling inside our boundary and they are paying off, house sparrow with many other birds love to visit our trees and sing a song to us in morning, i used to feed them, kept water source even my kid first words in morning is chiya chiya..looking from bedroom window..now he used to feed them from his portion.
