Maharashtra government releases ₹90.72 lakh for plantation upkeep amid drought in 304 talukas
The Maharashtra state government has allocated ₹90.72 lakh to support the fourth‑year maintenance of community tree‑planting schemes, including Panchayat Van, Bel Van and Amrit Van, across 304 talukas facing drought conditions. The disbursement is tied to a requirement that at least 90 percent of the saplings survive, aiming to ensure the longevity of the plantations in the region and contribute to future climate resilience.
