The youth from different universities cleaned the Margalla Hills Trail-5 on Sunday in connection with the 9th edition of the Pakistan Mountain Festival. The two-week long event is being organised by the Devcom-Pakistan (Development Communications Network) to commemorate the importance of mountains.
Margalla Hills clean-up was supported by the Comsats University’s CS Adventure Club, Shad Foundation, Islamabad Wildlife Management Board and United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. Deputy Mayor Islamabad Metropolitan Corporation Zeeshan Naqvi was the chief guest on the occasion.
Zeeshan Naqvi while appreciating Devcom-Pakistan for its consistent youth engagement in the mountains conservation said the youth need to understand the value of nature and natural resources, help the society and authorities to keep intact the green cover.
He said the citizens’ awareness has been raised about the biodiversity of the Margalla Hills National Park with the vigorous performance of IWMB. We need do more efforts to make the citizens more aware of their responsibilities to keep the city and Margalla Hills clean and green.
The Devcom-Pakistan Director Munir Ahmed said our mountains are the hub of resources including water, biodiversity, medicinal plants, music, culture and heritage.
