Jaipur: On the occasion of Hariyali Teej,
Pink City
witnessed a green revolution as both Jaipur Municipal Corporations—Greater and Heritage—jointly planted over 3.5 lakh saplings in a single day under the 'Hariyalo Rajasthan' campaign.
The massive tree plantation drive aimed to promote greenery and environmental awareness, turning the celebration into a people's movement. JMC-G undertook the plantation of 1.5 lakh saplings. A central control room was set up to monitor the drive, where geo-tagging of every planted sapling was tracked in real time.
Meanwhile, JMC-H surpassed expectations by planting over 2 lakh saplings, well above its initial target of 1.5 lakh. The primary event was held at Khadda Park in Civil Lines Zone, where acting mayor Kusum Yadav, commissioner Nidhi Patel, and MLA Gopal Sharma planted Ashoka trees. tnn
