"People and Plants", a tree plantation campaign, which is the brainchild of the Delhi government, was launched in the capital city on Sunday. Being a holiday, citizens showed their support in great numbers. The citizens had themselves demanded that something be done about the deteriorating air quality in the city, and enthusiastically supported the government's initiative. The mission is to plant at least ten thousand saplings and take care of them, to help fight air pollution. Areas had already been earmarked for the drive, and there were crowds waiting at each location before the government officials, accompanied by the forest department staff reached. Various NGOs, schools and medical associations also participated in the drive. People from the surrounding residential areas too came forth to make the launch a success.
