MANSEHRA: The district administration has planted around one million saplings across Mansehra during the ongoing tree plantation drive launched here earlier this month.
“We have adopted a multipronged strategy to achieve our target and so far planted around a million trees across the district,” Qasim Ali Khan, the deputy commissioner, told reporters after planting a sapling at the District Food Controller’s offices here on Monday.
He said that district administration had divided the ongoing tree plantation drive into the five major components based on the different ideas to involve schoolchildren, non-governmental organisations, women and even tourists coming to enjoy the natural beauty here.
