CREDAI-MCHI’s Green Drive in Beed Earns Praise from Maharashtra Environment Minister
Real Estate Maharashtra:Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 19: CREDAI-MCHI, the apex body representing real estate developers in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), has been honored with its second letter of appreciation from Smt. Pankaja Gopinath Munde, Minister of Environment & Climate Change, Government of Maharashtra. This recognition is for the organization’s contribution of 2,000 tree saplings planted at Bhagvan Bhaktigad, Sawargaon Ghat in Patoda, Beed district.

In her letter, the Minister acknowledged the initiative as a commendable gesture that aligns with the state’s environmental mission. She highlighted how such efforts contribute to the Van Mahotsav and Green Maharashtra Mission, fostering ecological balance and long-term climate resilience.

Speaking on this, Mr. Domnic Romell, President, CREDAI-MCHI said, “We are deeply honoured to receive this recognition from the Government of Maharashtra. Our commitment to sustainability is long-term and collaborative. The plantation of 1 lakh trees across MHADA sites is just one of the many steps we are taking to build a greener Maharashtra in partnership with the government and public stakeholders.”

This recognition comes as CREDAI-MCHI accelerates its commitment to green development. In a significant step forward, CREDAI-MCHI is currently in the process of planting 1,00,000 trees across multiple MHADA sites in Maharashtra.
