Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasised the need for nurturing a better planet on World Environment Day today.
He also saluted those working towards protecting the environment.
Modi said this year’s theme of ‘connecting people to nature’ was nothing but a way of “getting connected with ourselves“.
“World Environment Day is the right time to reaffirm our commitment to protecting our environment and nurturing a better planet,” he tweeted.
“We salute the will & determination of all those individuals & organisations working towards protecting the environment,” he added in another tweet.
Last week, after President Donald Trump announced the withdrawal of the US from the Paris climate deal , Modi had said the present generation should not snatch the right of the future generations to a clean and healthy earth.
