The TATA Power Tree Mittra initiative has already covered miles across the country. With more than 5000 trees planted across the state of Maharashtra, this noble initiative is picking up pace across the country, having already reached the states of Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Odisha, Gujarat and Karnataka.

In the coming days we hope that this non-profitable environmental charity programme will reach out to many more people who will play a vital role in increasing the number of plantations done across India and help us achieve remarkable milestones.

Challenges

The major challenges for the Tree Mittra initiative was to ensure survival of the planted saplings. This was ensured by training of Volunteers on the Local Species and imparting knowledge on the importance of planting and protecting trees by the Bio-diversity team while encouraging them to adopt/ plant a sapling, protect it and ensure its survival.
