PTI, Jul 14, 2024, 6:37 PM IST

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday joined a drive in Indore that aims to create a world record of planting 11 lakh saplings in a single day and asserted that the ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’ campaign launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi was an apt reply to challenges of climate change.

The ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’ campaign was launched by Modi on June 5 to mark World Environment Day, under which some 140 crore trees will be planted across the country, including 5.5 crore in Madhya Pradesh, which Shah described as “lungs of Bharat”.

“Development is taking place and we are enhancing facilities. Modiji has asked us to reflect on the past and also work for the coming generation. The concern for the environment has become important not just for the country. Carbon dioxide and monoxide have reduced the level of ozone and created holes in its layer,” Shah said.
