Aizawl, 7 Feb (Zoram News) : Home minister Lalchamliana on Monday opened statewide 'Fire Prevention Week' in Aizawl. The event is observed every year since 2000 to create awareness about the importance of fire prevention.
Speaking on the occasion, Lalchamliana, who also holds disaster management and rehabilitation portfolio, said that a vast forest land had been damaged in the state by man-made fire.
He said that unscrupulous activities of poachers could also cause forest fire. He said that forest fire didn't only damage forest lands but also lead to drying up of water sources and causes damage to agricultural land and fire in villages.
Lalchamliana also called upon the people to protect their land (Mizoram). Official functions to mark the inauguration of fire week prevention were also held across the state on Monday.
Forest minister TJ Lalnuntluanga, who attended the function held at Vanapa hall in Aizawl, said that the Centre is making massive efforts to replace the practice of jhum cultivation with agroforestry or garden under Green India Mission.
He said that the programme has so far covered five divisions and efforts are on to cover the entire state.
He said that the state government in collaboration with JICA has launched a project to protect streams, plants, bamboo and trees near water or river areas.
