On February 28 of this year, a tree-planting campaign took place in the Chorbog rural jamoat of the Varzob district with the participation of high-ranking officials - Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Tajikistan Ziyozoda Sulaymon Rizoi, Chairman of the Committee for Environmental Protection Sheralizoda Bahodur Ahmadjon, First Deputy Chairman of the People's Democratic Party of Tajikistan Nematzoda Maliksho Mahmadsho, and Chairman of the Varzob district Damonzoda Khusrav Nazarali.
The event brought together a broad range of employees and specialists from environmental protection authorities, central and local executive party committees, as well as residents of the jamoat. Through joint efforts, more than 1,500 high-quality evergreen saplings were planted across the hills and elevated areas.
In their remarks, the senior officials emphasized that environmental protection is one of the key priorities of the country’s socio-economic policy. They stressed that the practical implementation of state programs in this field - including through such collective initiatives - creates favorable conditions for ensuring sustainable development, improving the environmental situation, and raising the ecological awareness and culture of the population.
The Committee for Environmental Protection will continue to implement targeted collective practical measures, including greening campaigns, in order to ensure the effective execution of state programs, expand landscaping and afforestation activities, and strengthen cooperation with government bodies, political parties, and civil society institutions.
