Noida: The Gautam Budh Nagar administration on Tuesday held a meeting with 64 companies in the district, asking them to spot, adopt and conserve native ponds as part of their corporate social responsibility.
The meeting was chaired by ADM (establishment) Kumar Vineet and attended by members of the Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board and also the industries representatives.
The meeting was held to create a proper plan for conservation and replenishing the water sources in the district as Gautam Budh Nagar comes under critical zone in terms of water. Out of 64 companies, some have been asked to identify ponds and water sources that need to be filled with water and others are advised to create rainwater harvesting systems in schools.
