Mission Jal Thal Kashmir LG thanks PM Modi for highlighting lake preservation efforts
Srinagar/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has lauded the efforts of Srinagar district administration in restoring Gil Sar and Khushal Sar lakes of the city.
During his monthly radio programme 'Mann Ki Baat', Prime Minister appreciated peoples’ participation for cleaning the lakes under ‘Mission Jal Thal’.
"Proud of the people of Srinagar for being an integral part of ‘Mission Jal Thal’, which restores heritage and protects the environment," said Narendra Modi.
“Jan Bhagidari and people's resolve have always brought several transformations in our society. Mission Jal Thal is a Jan Andolan in Srinagar and it is restoring the glory of lakes and ponds.
"Besides Jan Bhagidari, technology also played a major role in restoration of Kusal Sar and Gil Sar lake. A survey was done to remove the encroachments and a movement was launched against plastic waste. In the second phase efforts were made to restore the water channels and 19 waterfalls. In order to spread awareness and ensure youth engagement, residents were nominated as water ambassadors,” Prime Minister added.
