MAHAKUMBH NAGAR, Dec 20: For the first time in Mahakumbh's history, the interests of wildlife and forest vegetation are being prioritized alongside those of the devotees. On Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's instructions, the Yogi government will initiate 'Operation Shatakveer,' a unique rescue operation to safeguard trees over 100 years old.
This initiative aims to preserve ancient trees and wildlife, ensuring an environmentally conscious approach to the grand spiritual event.
Additionally, following the Chief Minister's directives, the Forest Department has devised a special plan to relocate wildlife to their natural habitats. Simultaneously, efforts are underway to enhance the condition of old trees located in areas such as roadsides, parking spaces, and tent zones. This initiative ensures that visitors from across the country and the world arriving at Mahakumbhnagar can witness the grandeur of these vital oxygen providers firsthand.
Mahakumbhnagar is home to a significant number of trees over 100 years old, and the Yogi government is prioritizing their preservation across the state. In Prayagraj, the Forest Department has begun preparations to protect these ancient trees. Plans include reinforcing their roots by creating protective circles around them and installing sturdy concrete posts to ensure their stability.
