The Chief Minister said that public awareness is necessary for polyethylene liberation and environmental protection. The public walk by the Secretariat officials and staff for public awareness for polythene-free Green Doon will have meaningful results in its future.

At the same time, it is our effort to plant saplings in the entire state in just one hour on every Harela festival.
