Chandigarh: Union Minister Bhupendra Yadav and Haryana cabinet minister Rao Narbir Singh, inaugurated the second-day session of the three-day Aravalli Green Wall Partnership Summit in Gurugram.
The summit focuses on rehabilitating degraded land in the Aravalli mountain range, enhancing groundwater levels, improving biodiversity conservation, and fostering community participation for sustainable land use. This program is being held in Gurugram under the joint aegis of the State Biodiversity Board and The NCIS.
Union Minister, addressing the conference, emphasized that Gurugram is rapidly emerging as a modern global city. Alongside various development projects, special attention must be given to green development. He highlighted that there is clear evidence showing that when nature is allowed to develop at its own pace, humanity reaps its positive benefits.
Yadav further stated that the Aravalli mountain range not only provides life-sustaining resources to the surrounding areas, including the national capital, Delhi, but also acts as a barrier to the spread of the desert. In light of this, he urged everyone to contribute to the collective effort of conserving the Aravallis.
