BANGALORE: Bangalore
is renowned for its greenery and its clean environment, and thus, it earned the
title “Garden City of India”. But, the alarming level of pollution hike in the
city is acting as a black tint to the city’s shine and culture. Being a citizen
of India,
it is our Fundamental Duty to conserve and preserve the environment which we
live in. But, we often forget the mightier role played by our mother nature in our
daily lives and in order to remind ourselves, we celebrate the Environment Day on June 5th
every year, as a part of our tribute to
the environment and the ecosystem.
Vikram Hospital, one of the country’s leading Multispeciality
hospital is giving life to a dying out municipal park in Palace Guttahalli, Bellary Road. Vikram
Hospital is contributing
greatly towards the regeneration of the park as a token of appreciation on this
Environment Day. The Hospital is also planning to give away tree saplings to
the public as a part of the ecosystem rejuvenation awareness campaign in the
pollution driven ecosystem of today.

Environmentalist
and Founder of “One Tree by One Person” US Moinuddin who was present in the
event said, “It is a wonderful feeling when hospitals extend their helping hand
to safeguard our environment. Vikram
Hospital’s initiative of
developing a park and also distributing saplings to the people is a great
gesture of service to mankind. In a quest to make our lives better, we are over
utilizing our natural resources. The forests and green cover of the cities are decreasing;
concrete jungles have mushroomed after clearing away a large number of trees, creating
an unsafe environment for the future generations.”

Speaking
on the occasion Mr. Sudhir Pai, Executive Director and CEO, Vikram Hospitals
said, “We being the country’s leading Multispeciality Hospital
have a moral duty to perform towards the Mankind and the Environment. After
going through a lot of thought process, we have chosen the municipal park to be
regenerated as it’s the first learning ground for children, who are the future
of India.
They have the right to grow up the way we did in our past in a much healthier
environment. We are very happy to be part of this initiative as we are
contributing our part to the justice which is deserved by the mother nature. We
also welcome the entire family members of our mother earth to join in this
cause to serve her on this particular day.”
Dr.
C.N. Ashwath Narayan, MLA from Malleshwaram, Smt. Vijayakumari Kumar, Corporator
of Palace Guttahalli were also present in the event.
