The Srisailam temple management has decided to plant 3,000 saplings in the temple town before the end of the rainy season. On the occasion of the World Environment Day, the temple officials planted saplings near the Enugula Cheruvu on Thursday.
Trees like Raavi (sacred fig), kadambam (bur flower), medi chettu (mangrove tree), and others were planted. The tree plantation was taken up as part of environment protection and to further beautify the temple town, the officials said.
They said that 3,000 saplings will be planted on both sides of the ring road and in the gardens of the temple town and at least 30% of the trees will be Bilvam, Kadambam, usiri (amla) and other divine trees.
