Chief of Office, Ashok Kumar Shrestha, said that the tree sapling produced in the nurseries through the sub-division offices are being distributed for free.

“We have produced saplings in nurseries from three different locations at Tinkilo of Gorkha Municipality, Gandaki Sub-Division Forest Office at Siyurentar and Sub-Division Forest Office at Palungtar,” Shrestha shared.

The fallow land of the leasehold forests and communist forests would be used by encouraging the users’ group and communities for the saplings plantation.
