Great initiative! The Aravalli Green Wall is much needed considering how Delhi-NCR's air quality suffers. Hope they focus on native species that require less water. My only suggestion - can we have more transparency in survival rates of planted saplings? 🌱

Planting trees in mother's name is such a beautiful concept! Did this last year with my family - planted neem and peepal saplings in our village. Emotional + environmental benefits combined. More such people-friendly campaigns needed!

While the numbers sound impressive (109 crore trees!), what matters is how many survive beyond 2-3 years. The Aravalli project is good but implementation is key - hope they involve local communities for long-term maintenance.

As someone from Rajasthan, we desperately need this green wall to stop desertification. But officials must ensure water availability for these trees. Our groundwater levels are critical. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

Good symbolism but we need concrete action against illegal mining in Aravallis first. Can't keep planting trees while bulldozers are destroying existing forests. Balance development and environment properly.

Love that schools are being involved in this! My daughter's class adopted 10 trees last year and they track growth monthly. Creates environmental awareness in next generation. More citizen participation like this please! 🙏
