According to a statement by the MCG, the masks were handed over to MCG commissioner Vinay Pratap Singh who also inaugurated the plantation drive.

“I have a garment manufacturing company where these cloth masks are made. We just wanted to contribute in some way with the anti-Covid-19 measures and hence made the donation,” said Naveen Jain, general secretary of the RWA.

From June 27-August 3, the MCG is carrying out plantation drives during each weekend with the assistance of RWAs. The MCG is aiming to plant 80,000 saplings across the city and is providing the same to RWAs free of cost, who can then plant the sapling in their respective areas.

“About 280 RWAs have registered for this initiative, and the MCG has provided more than 15,000 plants from its four nurseries to around 150 RWAs so far. On Saturday and Sunday, around 100 saplings will be planted at The Legend condominia. We are undertaking the drive in several other residential areas across the city as well,” said SS Rohilla, public relation officer, MCG.
