Kolkata based PC Chandra group is keen to take up 'green plantation' as a part of its corporate social responsibilty (CSR) initiative.
AK Chandra, managing director of the PC Chandra group said, "I am very eager to take up a project of spreading greenery in the city through increased plantation. This is one amongst various projects that the group is interested to take up in the future."
PC Chandra had organised a 'save water project' today, highlighting the significance of potable water.
It had organised a two day art exhibtion with children from 35 schools participating in the event showcasing through their paintings, the danger that lies in case of shortage in drinking water.
"It is very important for business groups to have a social committment.This is part of our social committment and we had been eager for this project ever since the Mayor announced about such an initiative four months back." The cost of this campaign could run into a 'few lakhs', alleged Chandra.

Looking forward for an early response from your part.
While Mr.A.K. Chandra, Managing Director of PC Chandra group of industries deserves congratulatios for thinking of planting trees in Kolkata or in some areas of West Bengal. But what pinches me the most is the fact that he has not spent even a single rupee on planting of trees but has gained media attention of newspaper like Business Standard. What was the need of making announcement when work has not even been started. I have a list of a number of organisations and companies whose announcements for launching of CSR projects received wide publicity but till today not even a single naya paisa has been spent. I do not know what is happening in the country?
