How to remove the grey lines in plots

Question

How to remove the two grey lines (on the far right and top of the attached figure) and keep the two axes lines?

 #plt.style.use('Solarize_Light2')


plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = (50, 35)
plotdata = pd.DataFrame(result1)
plotdata.plot(kind="bar")
plt.legend(loc=0, prop={'size': 25})
plt.title("Actual Vs. Predicted Stratospheric Ozone Depletion", fontsize=30)
plt.xticks(rotation=0)
plt.xlabel("Index", fontsize=30)
ax.yaxis.offsetText.set_fontsize(50)

plt.ylabel("(kg CFC-11 eq.)", fontsize=30)

plt.tick_params(labelsize=30)

plt.grid(False)

Trial 1:

 plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = (50, 35)
    plotdata = pd.DataFrame(result1)
    plotdata.plot(kind="bar")
    plt.legend(loc=0, prop={'size': 25})
    plt.title("Actual Vs. Predicted Stratospheric Ozone Depletion", fontsize=30)
    plt.xticks(rotation=0)
    plt.xlabel("Index", fontsize=30)
    ax.yaxis.offsetText.set_fontsize(50)
    
    plt.ylabel("(kg CFC-11 eq.)", fontsize=30)
    
    plt.tick_params(labelsize=30)
    
    plt.grid(False)
ax.spines["right"].set_visible(False)
ax.spines["top"].set_visible(False)

You can get rid of part of the boundary using the set_visible command. For example, consider the following.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

# Generate the figure
###############

labels = ['G1', 'G2', 'G3', 'G4', 'G5']
men_means = [20, 34, 30, 35, 27]
women_means = [25, 32, 34, 20, 25]

x = np.arange(len(labels))  # the label locations
width = 0.35  # the width of the bars

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
rects1 = ax.bar(x - width/2, men_means, width, label='Men')
rects2 = ax.bar(x + width/2, women_means, width, label='Women')

# Add some text for labels, title and custom x-axis tick labels, etc.
ax.set_ylabel('Scores')
ax.set_title('Scores by group and gender')
ax.set_xticks(x, labels)
ax.legend()

# remove top/right boundary
###################

ax.spines["right"].set_visible(False)
ax.spines["top"].set_visible(False)

######

plt.show()
