Islamabad: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) on Wednesday (June 22) announced the formulation of a 30-year environmental protection plan for the capital city, news sources reported. The authority said that the project aims to make the capital city more sustainable and people-friendly.
Reportedly, the decision was made during an Islamabad Environment Board meeting chaired by Chairman CDA Amir Ali Ahmad. The meeting decided that the authority will develop initiatives to help the city’s greenery while simultaneously focusing on pollution reduction.
