Haritha Haram – T-SIG :: A consortium of Telangana state's social impact partners

T-SOCIAL IMPACT GROUP’S INITIATIVE FOR HARITHA HARAM

As part of the Haritha Haram, we have planned to organize a Mega Plantation drive on 31st August with a goal to plant more than 15,000 saplings in the IT corridors of Hyderabad. We have Government bodies, Public & Private Sectors and Academic Institutions join hands to run this Mega Plantation drive of the City, which seeks to build a novel culture, strengthen awareness locally, and socialize actions that we must together take up as responsible citizens to establish a Green cover, wherever plausible.

Our Honorable Chief Minister, Mr.K.Chandrasekhar Rao, leading advocacy on the environmental front, is really passionate that we build action that would strengthen citizenship behaviours on Climate Change and that Green enthusiasts will be role models to paint this part of the earth-Green.

We cordially invite all corporates to participate actively in this drive and partner with us to mark this as a great occasion.

Chief Guests for the event are:

Sri Jayesh Ranjan IAS Principal Secretary IT, E&C, I&C.

Telangana Ku Haritha Haram

Telangana Ku Haritha Haaram, a flagship programme of the Telangana Government envisages to increase the present 24% tree cover in the State to 33% of the total geographical area of the State. The thrust areas to achieve the above are two-fold; one, initiatives in notified forest areas, and the other, initiatives in areas outside the notified forest areas

Objective of Haritha Haram

The objective is sought to be achieved by a multi-pronged approach of rejuvenating degraded forests, ensuring more effective protection of forests against smuggling, encroachment, fire, grazing and intensive soil and moisture conservation measures following the watershed approach.
