Green India Mission falls 30% short of target in five years

The ambitious Green India Mission (GIM) plan for undertaking afforestation activities under the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) has hit roadblocks in some states, resulting in a 30% shortfall in target from 2015-16 to 2020-21. Though five of 15 states/Union Territories shortlisted for the Mission have achieved 100% of their target, three others — West Bengal, Himachal Pradesh and J&K — have so far not come on board to improve the quality of green cover in the country.
