We also take care and look after these trees and whenever the height of a tree reaches 22 inches, it is our legal right to cut and sell it to earn a livelihood," they said, adding that they could only cut the trees after the approval of the patwari and forest officer, Dawn reported."We have provided land to the forest department and it is our right to get royalty, but now we have learnt that the government is taking away this royalty from us.
