Mayor of Agartala Municipal Corporation (AMC) Dipak Majumder on Saturday urged people to plant at least one tree in the name of their mother and take care of it to counter the impacts of global climate changes. He emphasized the importance of such measures in maintaining ecological balance.
Speaking on the occasion of Vanmahotsava a tree plantation drive was organized by Ward no 14 at Ranjitnagar, Speaking on the occasion Mayor of Agartala Municipal Corporation (AMC) Dipak Majumder asserted that the ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’ campaign launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi was an apt reply to challenges of climate change. “We must plant trees to survive as well as to counter the effects of global warming,” he added.
“Development is taking place and we are enhancing facilities. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has asked us to reflect on the past and also work for the coming generation. The concern for the environment has become important not just for the country. Carbon dioxide and monoxide have reduced the level of ozone and created holes in its layer,” Mayor said.
