Pratap Pat Joshi, Executive Board Member, Global CIO Manufacturing Forum shared his experience and said, “GCMF Pune started a plantation drive at Baner Hill. CIOs participated in this drive and reached the starting point 6:30 am in the morning. A small climb to the hilltop was a trek for most of us. Plantation on a barren land with full of stones was a difficult task but gave us satisfaction. We must ensure these plants are watered with the help of NGOs who carry out these activities post the plantation for some years helping them to become into trees.”
