New Delhi: On World Environment Day, PM Narendra Modi addressed a function from Vigyan Bhawan, Delhi. Due to this, the Prime Minister said that he is satisfied that all the schemes that are going on in the country for the last 8 years, there is a request for environmental protection in some way or the other. Jaggi Vasudev, head of Isha Foundation was also present on the occasion.

In his address, Prime Minister Modi said, 'Be it the Swachh Bharat Mission or programs related to waste to wealth, construction of modern sewage treatment plants in cities under the AMRUT mission, or the campaign to get rid of single-use plastic or under Namami Gange. In the campaign of Ganga cleanliness, India's efforts to protect the environment have been multi-faceted. We are connecting the people of the country with water conservation through campaigns like Catch the Rain.

Due to this, Prime Minister Modi also said that in March this year itself, the campaign for the conservation of 13 big rivers has also started in the country. In this, along with reducing pollution in the water, work is also being done to plant forests on the banks of rivers. In this year's budget, we have decided that we will encourage natural farming in the villages situated on the banks of the Ganges, and build a huge corridor of natural farming. With this our farms will not only be chemical free, Namami Gange campaign will also get new strength. Prime Minister Modi while advocating for saving the soil said, 'To save the soil, we have focused our attention on 5 things. The first is how to make the soil chemical-free. Second- how to save the creatures that live in the soil. Third- How to maintain soil moisture, how to increase the availability of water till it. Fourth- How to remove the damage that is happening to the soil due to less groundwater. And the most important fifth is how to stop the continuous erosion of the soil due to the reduction of the forest cover. The Prime Minister has praised mass movements like Save Soil for working together on all these fronts. Prime Minister Modi also said, 'India has led the creation of CDRI and International Solar Alliance at the international level. Last year, India has also resolved that India will achieve the target of Net Zero by 2070. India is also working on restoring 26 million hectares of barren land by 2030. In such a situation, today India is constantly emphasizing on new innovations and pro-environment technology to protect the environment.
