Er Baldev Singh Sran, Chairman-cum-Managing Director, Punjab State Power Corporation (PSPCL) has made an appeal to the PSPCL officials to plant maximum number of trees in surroundings of their offices, grids and other official buildings to play their role in maintaining ecological balance in the state.
Sran made this appeal while planting saplings in the PSPCL Head Office here on Friday. He also made a similar appeal to the farmers of the state to plant trees in surroundings of their tubewell electric motors and other vacant spaces in the fields. He also laid stress on the need to make joint efforts for encouraging tree plantation across Punjab with a purpose to safeguard environment and neutralise the factors which cause ecological imbalance because of over exploitation of resources.
Further, Sran said everyone in the state, including NGOs, social welfare organisations and media could play an important role in protecting environment of the state. He said that the level of underground water is reseeding, resulting in shortage of water for irrigation and drinking purposes.
Adding, he said this is the right time to control the situation. He appealed PSPCL officials, farmers and others not only to plant saplings but also to take care of them till saplings are fully grown as trees.
Sran said that the philosophy of Gurus preaches us to always respect the nature. Punjabis should become true followers of their Gurus by plantings trees and saving natural resources. He asked people not to indulge in misuse of natural resources.
