PDS shops to give fruit trees: Jharkhand CMs initiative to increase green cover
Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren on Friday directed the deputy commissioners of all 24 districts in Jharkhand to ensure that ration card holders are given fruit-bearing saplings.
Ensure that at least two fruit-bearing saplings are given to all ration card beneficiaries during the distribution of ration. This will not only increase the income of the villagers (so that they can sell it when the Plants will bear fruits) but also increase green cover for the benefit of the Environment, Soren said while reviewing the progress of schemes of the rural development department in the state.
There are over 60 lakh families covered under National Act (NFSA) in Jharkhand who get rations from the Public Distribution System (PDS) shops every month at a subsidised rate.
According to the Forest Survey of India 2021 report, over 33 per cent of Jharkhand is covered by forest and trees.
