MUMBAI: Around 120 mango trees belonging to a retired school teacher were reduced to ashes in a mysterious fire which raged his orchard in Edwan, a small village in Palghar, around 100 kms from Mumbai. The cause of fire has not been ascertained.

Pramod Raut (70) a resident of Kandivali turned to farming after retiring as the head master of a Marathi medium school in Goregaon in 2002. He planted mango saplings in his 2.5 acres plot in the Edwan village.

Raut who focused on organic farming said, "I was shocked when I got a telephone call informing that my orchard was on fire," said Raut who along with his son rushed to Palghar to find his life's savings reduced to ask.

Raut said that though he did not suspect anybody he is certain that the fire was set by miscreants in the village who were upset with his trees. He suspects that the bundles of hay stacked in his orchard for organic manure may have been set on fire which engulfed the trees. A case has been registered with the Safhale police station.

Unfortunately for Raut he had failed to insure his trees against unknown calamities. He had planted varieties of mangoes including Alphonso, Kesar and Langda. The loss is estimated at over Rs 12 lakhs.
