Dear Mr Tiwari with all due respect to Mr Gurcharan Singh's view, the leaves of bakain trees are white not because of the fact that they are will fall off soon but this is due to some (which is at present unknown to me at least) nutritional deficiency in the soil this is happening all over the punjab state and you can check it any time the leaves wont fall soon. yeah due to this deficiency they may get senile before their natural senescence cycle but its not the other way around for sure. this can be observed from the fact that if you look at these leaves very carefully they are the leaves which are not old but rather majority of them might be young leaves. they develop with their natural non green colour but fail to develop normal chlorophyll contents as they move towards maturation.
