A tree-planting program has been carried out at Dhaka College in the capital on the initiative of 31st BCS Cadre Association. On the occasion of World Environment Day, this program was observed in Dhaka College as part of mass tree planting activities in all levels of educational institutions across the country.
On Friday (June 10) afternoon, forest, fruit and medicinal trees were planted in front of the main administrative building of Dhaka College, near the playground and on the pond.

Mushfiqur Rahman, organizing secretary of the 31st BCS Cadre Association and assistant professor of political science at Dhaka College, said the program is aimed at increasing green forestry across the country. Last year, 3,100 trees were planted across the country.
Mrityunjay De Sajal, general secretary of the organization and ADC of DMP’s Tenjgaon zone, said that at present the environment is under threat as a result of massive deforestation across the country. Very little is being planted compared to the amount of trees being cut down. This is our initiative in preventing natural disasters and expecting a beautiful environment. It is our hope that other people across the country will also be inspired by this and take care of the trees.
This year, the 31st BCS Cadre Association plans to plant more than 5,000 trees, said its president Abdullah Al Hadi.
“We have started this activity in response to the Prime Minister’s call for a fruit, forest and medicinal plantation,” he said. After planting the trees, the concerned officials will keep an eye on them for regular supervision. Not only sound education but his alertness and dedication too are most required.
Officers of different cadres of 31st BCS were present at that time.
