with a series of initiatives aimed at raising awareness about land restoration,
desertification, and drought resilience, the theme for 2024.
The day began
with a symbolic tree-planting ceremony led by Dr. A. V. Ramana, Chairman, NMPA.
Dr. Ramana, along with senior officers and employees, planted a total of 450
saplings around the port area.
Further

awareness. Dr. A. V. Ramana, Chairman presided over the program, welcoming the
audience and emphasizing the critical theme of World Environment Day. He
highlighted the increasing importance of land restoration due to global warming
and environmental challenges.
The program
featured Shri Nitin Vas, Founder of Paper Seed, as the Chief Guest. Shri Nitin
Vas shared his innovative eco-friendly initiatives like paper seed pens and
pencils. He also delivered a knowledge-sharing session on the significance of
safeguarding nature.
During the
program, Shri Shekhar Lagwankar, Chief Engineer (Civil), welcomed the
dignitaries. Dr. Roopashree, Deputy Manager (Environment), presented the annual
report detailing NMPA's ongoing environmental initiatives. The program
concluded with a vote of thanks delivered by Shri Ramesh K, Deputy Chief
Mechanical Engineer.
In addition
to the tree planting and CNG car launch, NMPA also sponsored 400 cloth bags to
the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board in support of World Environment
Day.
NMPA's
commitment to environmental responsibility goes beyond the day's celebration.

fostering environmental awareness within the community.
