Hyderabad Metro Rail Ltd has made arrangements for distribution of saplings as a part of its Vana Prasadam scheme.
To supplement the efforts of other Governmental organisations and to increase the green cover in the city, the HMR has decided to distribute saplings free-of-cost to individuals, organisations, resident welfare associations, authorities of educational institutions and other organisations under ‘Vana Prasadam’ scheme, N.V.S.Reddy, Managing Director of HMR, said. Saplings mostly of native species will be distributed at Elders’ Mela being held at Zoroastrian Club near Yatri Nivas, Secunderabad, for three days during October 2 to 4. They will also be given at the HMR in Metro Rail Bhavan.
For plantation of over 100 saplings in any identified locality or campus, HMR officials will arrange plantation. HMR is now on Facebook (www.facebook.com/hmrlgov).
