NCR- Gautam Budh Nagar, Aug 14 . Plants not only provide oxygen, greenery, clean air, they are helpful in balancing the temperature, while they also play an important role in improving the ground water level. Therefore, plant as many trees as possible and also take the responsibility of taking care of the plants that have been planted, only then they will grow up and become capable of giving us fruits, flowers and shade.
District Magistrate of Gautam Budh Nagar IAS Manish Kumar Verma expressed this view in the plantation ceremony ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’ organized by Jal Prahari in Bal Bharti Public School, Noida.
Manish Kumar Verma said that social, industrial organizations are coming forward for plantation and greenery in Gautam Budh Nagar. He appealed to the social organizations to plant trees and said that this effort of Jal Prahari on the call of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is commendable because if the ground water level has to be improved, then maximum number of trees will have to be planted.
Manish Kumar Verma watched a presentation on the importance of environment prepared by the school children and in his brief address told how he learnt the importance of taking care of plants and water conservation from his school teachers and his mother. He said, mothers inculcate in us the values of becoming successful people and in the same way, Mother Earth holds groundwater through plantation so that we can provide water to our children.
