Towards a greener future: Sikkim

Gangtok, Feb. 3: The Sikkim State Government soon plans to start a night safari package at Himalayan Zoological Park at Bulbulay near Gangtok. They also want to ensure that the roads across the state are kept greener to protect its ecological and aesthetic properties.

At today’s meeting, at the official residence of the chief minister, Pawan Kumar Chamling, there were also plans to introduce schemes to promote floriculture based on technical training and marketing facilities.

The state forest department was ordered to draw out a blue print to start the night safari at the Himalayan Zoological Park and to upgrade the bird sanctuary at Rabdentse located in West Sikkim.

To protect the scenic beauty of the state the government has decided to take strict action against the dumping of soil near government owned roads and encroachment on government property. Also, parking of vehicles on highways and putting commercial hoarding in trees will be totally prohibited.

All the departments in the state have agreed to cooperate with resources and man power to plant new tress along major roads in the state. It seems like the state government is all geared to take Sikkim towards a greener future.
