Plantation drive along rivers to increase green cover
Lucknow: In a major step towards environmental protection and river rejuvenation, the Yogi Adityanath govt is running a large-scale plantation drive along riverbanks. The forest department aims to plant around 3.5 crore saplings along major rivers like the Ganga, Yamuna, Saryu, Gomti, Ken, Betwa, Rapti, Son, Ramganga, Chhoti Gandak, Chambal, Hindon, and others. The campaign will span a 5 km stretch on either side of these rivers and is intended to enhance green cover, control pollution, conserve soil, and promote groundwater recharge. The initiative will also significantly contribute to CM Yogi Adityanath's ambitious River Rejuvenation Programme. The drive is also expected to aid agricultural productivity and rural income. The drive is underway since July 1, as part of the Van Mahotsav 2025, with a specific target to plant 3.5 crore saplings along 21,313.5 hectares of riverbank areas. The Yamuna riverbanks will see the highest number of saplings planted (9,678,330). It will be followed by the Ganga with 5,480,994 saplings and Betwa with 5,061,251. TNN
