Coconuts Removed From Trees In Preparation For Barack Obama's India Trip

India is preparing for Barack Obama's first visit to the country by removing coconuts from palm trees in Mumbai to protect the US president.

As well as the usual security measures that come with welcoming a visiting dignitary, Indian authorities have decided to go one step further. All coconuts around the city's Gandhi museum, one of Obama's stops in the city, are being taken down.

Mani Bhavan, where Mahatma Gandhi stayed during his freedom struggle against the British, is among five places the US president is visiting in Mumbai.

"We told the authorities to remove the dry coconuts from trees near the building. Why take a chance?" Mani Bhavan's executive secretary, Meghshyam Ajgaonkar, told the BBC.

Every year in India people are injured or even killed by falling coconuts.
You just cant make this stuff up !!!!
