MMRCL issued a call to plant trees along the alignment of Metro Line 3
The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Limited (MMRCL) has urged residential buildings, commercial establishments, and government offices to participate in tree planting within their premises. MMRCL will handle the provisions for planting, and maintenance of trees for the next three years. This initiative aligns with the high court directive requiring MMRCL to plant 2,600 trees along Metro Line 3. To date, approximately 500 trees have been planted from Colaba to Aarey, with additional land needed to meet the target.
MMRCL has issued a call to plant trees along the alignment of Metro Line 3 within the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) area, as mandated by their affidavit to the high court. MMRCL has invited various establishments, including government and private offices, residential complexes, educational institutions, and hospitals (with full occupancy certificates), to participate in this tree-planting initiative. Applications should be submitted by July 15. Premises within 500 meters on either side of the MML-3 corridor will be prioritised for the plantation efforts.
