In Moheshkhali stands a majestic banyan tree over a century old, a silent witness to history. It has provided shade and shelter for generations, becoming a cherished landmark for locals.
Sprawling roots and branches extend over nearby homes, symbolizing nature’s blessing. However, climate change and unplanned development now threaten its survival. Environmentalists urge immediate conservation efforts to protect this historical tree.
This banyan tree can remain a proud symbol of Maheshkhali’s natural heritage for generations with proper care.
