Environmental Protection is Everyone's Responsibility - MLA Dr. Kuchukulla Rajesh Reddy
Nagarkurnool: MLA Dr.Kuchukulla Rajesh Reddy emphasized that environmental protection is everyone's responsibility and urged all individuals to actively participate in tree planting initiatives. He attended the Swachhata-Pachchadana program at Mini Tank Bund as the chief guest. During the event, Dr. Rajesh Reddy, along with women participants, planted trees.
In his address, the MLA highlighted that the trees we plant today will provide oxygen for future generations.

He encouraged everyone to adopt the habit of planting trees during birthdays, weddings, and other celebrations.
