Under the drive as many as 250 plants of orange would be planted at public places and along roads in Hayatabad while five million would be planted across the province in collaboration with National Bank of Pakistan. People could enjoy the fruits for free.
The governor after inaugurating the drive directed department of Agriculture to ensure plantation of quality seeds as per the requirement of local weather. He also directed to plants at the places which were directly accessible by the general public so that the common man could be benefited from it.
