Firefighters and the Disaster Management Cell were present at the spot.
No one was injured in the incident, the Disaster Management Unit said.
The tree that fell on the road was cut and removed with the help of civic officials and the fire brigade personnel, the Disaster Management Unit said in a statement.
Meanwhile, a fire broke out in the electric meter room of a three-storey civic-run hospital in Maharashtra's Thane city on Wednesday, an official told the news agency PTI.
No one was injured in the blaze which erupted at around 1.50 am in the hospital located in the Kasarwadavali area on Ghodbunder Road, Thane Municipal Corporation's (TMC) disaster management cell chief Yasin Tadvi told PTI.
There were patients in the hospital at the time of the incident, but no one was affected, he said.
The fire was caused due to a short-circuit, he said.
After being alerted, local firemen and the disaster management team rushed to the spot and extinguished the blaze by 2.20 am, the official told PTI.
An additional executive engineer of the TMC told PTI a "change wire" between the generator and the MSEB (Maharashtra State Electricity Board) power supply was damaged due to the fire, while all the meters and the connection wires were intact.
The power supply to the building has been cut off and will be restored after the change wire is replaced by the MSEB personnel, he said.
The ground-plus-three-storey building has an Out-Patient Department (OPD), as well as dialysis and maternity wards, Tadvi told PTI.
