The work is being undertaken in a phased manner in association with the Say Trees Environmental Trust, an NGO. A total of 4,300 square metres of the plantation has already been developed while work in the remaining 1,100 square metres is under progress.

As many as 20,000 plants will spread over the 5,400 square metres area. Earlier, the SCR had developed a Miyawaki plantation in Gadwal and Nizamabad on 2,300 square metres of area with 8,500 plants.

Arun Kumar Jain, SCR General Manager (in-charge), appreciated the efforts of the Hyderabad Division Team for utilising the area towards environmental protection. He called upon people to plant saplings in their residential areas as it is the need of the hour and nurture its growth, so as to create a greener and safer environment.
