Tiger Reserves Get Green Boost: Yadav Launches Mega Plantation Drive

Union Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav on July 29, 2025, launched a massive afforestation initiative across India’s 58 tiger reserves. The ambitious project aims to plant over one lakh saplings, significantly enhancing tiger habitats.

Simultaneously, Yadav unveiled a comprehensive “Plastic-Free Tiger Reserves” campaign. This crucial step aims to mitigate the devastating impact of plastic pollution on these vital ecosystems.

The event also witnessed the induction of 24 nations into the International Big Cat Alliance, strengthening global collaborative efforts for wildlife conservation.

Further bolstering conservation efforts, the Minister released several key publications focusing on various aspects of wildlife protection and management.

This multi-pronged approach underscores the government’s commitment to safeguarding India’s rich biodiversity and ensuring the long-term survival of its iconic tiger population. The success of these initiatives will be crucial in maintaining India’s position as a global leader in tiger conservation and combating the growing threat of plastic pollution.
