Vikas Vishwa Kalyan Samridhi Sanstha President Journalist Vikas Tyagi said that dense mini forests should be developed by planting trees around about 300 ponds in Indore district. Indore Collector Ashish Singh had sought suggestions in a meeting of social organizations in the Collector's Office for Indore Master Plan 2041.

A meeting of organizations, institutions, stake holders etc. related to the development of the city was organized on the initiative of Collector Ashish Singh to make Indore Vikas Yojana 2041 better equipped with public facilities and useful for the public.

In this meeting, suggestions were taken by discussing in detail about the development plans of Indore.

In the meeting, Joint Director Urban and Rural Investment Subhashish Banerjee along with representatives of city development organizations Indore Utthan Abhiyan Samiti, Abhyas Mandal, Seva Surbhi, Vikas Vishwa Kalyan Samridhi Sanstha and other social organizations put forward their suggestions before Indore Collector Ashish Singh.

Vikas Vishwa Kalyan Samridhi Sanstha President Journalist Vikas Tyagi said that there are about 300 government ponds in Indore district, which should be demarcated and deepened. Plantation should be done on a large scale around all these ponds so that all the trees around the ponds grow and form a dense mini forest. By planting trees around the pond, the trees will continue to get water and these trees will grow to form a small forest and will also work as a security wall and boundary wall around the pond for the protection of the pond.

In Indore, Saraswati and Kanha rivers pass through the middle of the city. The water level of these rivers should be maintained and they should be used for boat transport and passenger transport. If boat transport starts in these two rivers of the city, then the demand for petrol and diesel will also decrease. There will be a reduction in noise and air pollution. By starting passenger and goods transport by boat, the traffic on the road will decrease and people will get relief from traffic jams. Passenger transport and goods transport by boat will be available to the people at lower prices than road transport.

Among the trees planted around the ponds, medicinal trees and fruit trees should be planted so that the people who take care of these forests can also get a means of income and employment.

Fish farming should also be started in the ponds so that the people who take care of the ponds can get a means of income and employment.

In summer, when the water level of the pond decreases, then some trees should be planted on the land of the pond. Permission to grow fruits, vegetables and other crops for a month should be given to the people who look after the pond so that they can earn income.

In Indore, shady footpaths should be made by planting trees on both sides of the footpath so that people can cover short distances by walking on the shady footpath and they do not have to use their two-wheelers and auto rickshaws again and again. This will not only save money for the citizens but there will also be no air pollution and noise pollution and citizens will also get physical health benefits by walking daily.

Many government and private schools in Indore district are spread over several hectares of land. Small forests should be developed inside these schools by planting trees on a large scale.
