Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli among other ministers on Tuesday planted litchi saplings in Singh Durbar on the occasion of World Environment Day.

In a message on the World Environment Day, he said that it is urgent for all of us to collectively think about environmental protection and devise our actions accordingly.

He said that the environment of Nepal has become polluted to some extent due to lack of awareness, growing aspirations for development and imbalanced development.

Impact of environmental and ecological imbalance is unpredictable and the world comes under a high risk of grave disasters in such situation and thus world's combined efforts should be on keeping the environment safe for future also. RSS
