The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) recently completed a historic, citizen-led Green Bengaluru by BDA plantation drive on June 27, 2026. Over 50,000 volunteers planted 1.5 million native saplings in a single 12-hour period, officially setting a Guinness World Record across multiple city venues.
The mega plantation drive witnessed enthusiastic participation from citizens, students, government officials, resident welfare associations, and volunteers, reflecting Bengaluru's collective commitment to environmental conservation. The initiative is expected to strengthen the city's green cover, improve biodiversity, and contribute to a healthier, more sustainable urban ecosystem for future generations.
