Pasighat- Along with rest of the state and as part of “Clean, green Arunachal campaign” a plantation drive was carried out today near Mariyang – Mebo – Pasighat tri junction, by Mebo Forest Range under Pasighat Forest Division.

All participating members of today’s plantation drive felt the urgent need of more plantation of trees to restore or recover the already deforested areas as massive deforestation from last few decades have caused so much so to the environment of the state.
