Andhra Pradesh: Developing ‘nagara vanams’ is a priority, says Chittoor DFO

District Forest Officer C. Chaitanya Kumar Reddy has said that a top priority would be accorded to developing ‘nagara vanams’ (city forests), particularly in the municipalities of Kuppam, Palamaner, Punganur, Nagari, and Chittoor Municipal Corporation.

Addressing the Forest Range Officers (FROs) of six ranges during a review meeting after taking charge as the District Forest Officer, Mr. Chaitanya Kumar Reddy asked the officials to launch people-friendly measures by developing the ‘nagara vanams’.

He said that the concept was catching up fast in the urban areas. Reviewing the ongoing works undertaken in the Chittoor Park zone, he said that steps would be taken to provide more amenities for the visitors.
