In a remarkable push for environmental conservation, the city of Indore has planted 51,000 saplings on Revati Range Hill as part of the inspiring campaign “Ek Bagiya Maa Ke Naam”. 

This initiative, aimed at paying tribute to Mother Earth, is part of a broader movement that has already seen over 1.2 million trees planted across the city.

Union Environment Minister Bhupendra Yadav applauded the effort, describing it as a "priceless gift to the Earth". He also suggested that the drive could become a world record holder for sapling survival rate, with early figures showing a remarkable 90% survival rate. The plantation included climate-resilient species and was carried out with active community participation—featuring students, volunteers, and civic bodies.

Indore’s example shines as a model for sustainable urban development, showing how cities can take real action against climate change while also creating green, livable spaces for future generations.
