CDA to Develop Miyawaki Forest in Federal Capital

Islamabad: The federal capital’s largest Miyawaki forest is being developed by the Capital Development Authority (CDA) in partnership with a private group.

The Miyawaki Forest in sector H-12 was officially opened by Chairman Capital Development Authority Captain (r) Muhammad Usman Yunus and MD Mari Petroleum by planting seedlings. On this occasion, he was joined by other CDA officers.

Details indicate that the private corporation Mari Petroleum assisted in the development of this Miyawaki Forest on 17 acres of land. A total of 20,000 large-sized seedlings of various species were initially planted, and additional plantations will be added to expand the forest. In the same vein, a unique protective fence has also been put in place to safeguard the vegetation in this Miyawaki Forest.

The Capital Development Authority Chairman acknowledged Mari Petroleum on this occasion and thanked them for helping to build such a sizable forest alongside CDA. He added that Islamabad is already a green city and that the planting of 20,000 more plants will further enhance its greenness.

On this occasion, Chairman CDA added that although there aren’t many saplings left to plant due to environmental degradation, the CDA administration is working to establish new plantations. Along with the other departments’ cooperation, this will assure maximum planting.

Additionally, he stated that because this is the largest Miyawaki forest in Islamabad, additional measures would be taken to safeguard the safety of the plants that have been planted by the CDA administration.
