Kishan Reddy at Bharat Coking Coal Limited in Dhanbad, is to plant and distribute approximately 1 million saplings. This initiative is part of the "Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam" campaign by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and is aimed at promoting environmental sustainability and climate change mitigation. The event was held simultaneously at around 300 locations across 47 districts in 11 coal/lignite-bearing states via video conferencing. The initiative underscores the commitment of Coal/Lignite PSUs to environmental stewardship, with plans to cover 15,350 hectares with green cover over the next five years, using innovative methods like the Miyawaki method, seed balls, and drone technology. This effort contributes significantly to India's net-zero target by 2070, aligning economic growth with ecological preservation and promoting biodiversity.
