| Wild Date Palm (Khajur) is a small palm 9 or 12 m. being the usual height. In some districts in India, it forms gregarious forest growths and covers considerable areas. Many of these forests are Reserved and belong to the government; the rights of Toddy tapping are allowed to certain individuals who get considerable income from it. Date Palms give an excellent yield of palm-wine but, as can be expected, the fruits of a freely tapped tree are inferior to those of one which is allowed to retain its sap. Sleeping mats are woven from the leaves and baskets from the leaf-stalks; these are also twisted into ropes used, among other things, for drawing water from wells. |

If Delhi wants cleaner winters, it needs more green cover, not just temporary interventions. Clouds may not cooperate, but trees always will.
