“We are committed to achieving the target of a carbon sink by enhancing the tree cover. We will launch the Green Aravalli Project, a green corridor to protect and preserve biodiversity in the region and combat desertification.”
Tree-cover and afforestation efforts continue toward India’s NDC additional-carbon-sink target, supported by the Green India Mission, the Nagar Van Yojana (75 new urban-forest projects sanctioned in 2025) and compensatory afforestation. The Aravalli Green Wall Project (a green corridor across the Aravalli landscape in Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Delhi to combat desertification) has been initiated. Implementation is ongoing and the carbon-sink target is not yet fully met. Partial.
We have started multiple programmes to protect the environment like PM Surya Ghar Yojana, Railway Electrification, PM e-Bus, promotion of EVs, Ethanol and Bio-fuel promotion among others. Through these programmes, our citizens will benefit from the opportunity to live in a clean environment.
We will promote recycling programmes across the country. We will institutionalise recycling mandates across sectors to maximise mineral recovery from used products.
We will strengthen Mission LIFE, establishing a comprehensive repository encompassing both traditional and contemporary best practices, and fostering the global adoption of environmentally friendly lifestyles to promote sustainable living across the globe.
