What is the procedure and how much time does it take to get the felling permission?
Ans : The application has to apply for felling of trees, in prescribed form to the tree officer along with various enclosures. These enclosures are mainly pertaining to the ownership of the land and the right on the trees. The tree officer is bound to inform the applicants about his decision of granting the felling permission or rejection within sixty days from the receipt of the application for felling of trees. Otherwise the applicant can fell the trees as if the permission has been granted.
