Delhi government to develop tree canopies

The Delhi government will develop aesthetic tree canopies by various roadsides of the capital to provide shelter to pedestrians, Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit said here Wednesday.

However, she said the canopies would require proper trimming at regular intervals.

Dikshit announced this while launching a plantation drive in south Delhi's Golf Links area.

She underlined the need for proper care of the planted saplings to facilitate their growth.
