Aarika Shrivastava, a 15-year-old student from Bandra West, India, tragically died on Sunday after suffering severe head injuries when two trees collapsed onto the autorickshaw she was in during a shopping outing. The accident occurred on May 14, and despite undergoing emergency treatment, Aarika succumbed to her injuries early Sunday morning. Her friend, Harshita Kumar, remains in critical condition following multiple surgeries for severe head trauma. The trees, which were located on property owned by Bluestone Properties Pvt Ltd, reportedly became unstable due to construction-related debris. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has initiated action against the developer for violating the Maharashtra (Urban Areas) Protection and Preservation of Trees Act, 1975. Family members have expressed frustration over the lack of accountability from the developer, who has yet to offer financial assistance despite the families incurring over ₹24 lakh (approximately $29,000 USD) in medical expenses. Bluestone Properties has stated they are cooperating with authorities and expressed condolences to Aarika's family.
