New Delhi, June 5 (IBNS): Union Minister Prakash Javadekar will carry forth the drive to spread awareness about environment protection through the newly launched #SelfieWithSapling campaign by planting a sapling in the premises of Films Division in Mumbai on Thursday.

He will also take a tour of the National Museum of Indian Cinema, which was inaugurated by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this year in January.

During the visit, he will also be interacting with top stars from the Film Industry to exhort them to take the campaign forward in order to spread the message of sustainability, importance of reduction of carbon footprint and significance of environment protection for future generations.

Earlier today, on the occasion of World Environment Day, Javadekar planted a sapling in the premises of Paryavaran Bhawan in New Delhi, where he was joined by ace cricketer Kapil Dev, renowned actors Jackie Shroff and  Randeep Hooda and famous folk singer Malini Awasthi.
