Parks and Horticulture Authority (PHA) has geared up 'Clean and Green Punjab' plantation campaign with logo of 'Har Bashar: Do Shajar' (Everyone should plant at least two trees)
In this connection, the PHA is organising various tree plantation events in which various dignitaries and celebrities are planting saplings in different localities of the provincial capital, according to a PHA spokesperson here on Saturday.
Continuing with national tree plantation drive, she added that the PHA invited legendary actor Moammar Rana and former cricketer Shafqat Rana to plant saplings at Jillani Park on Saturday.
