Murmu urged all to take a resolution that whatever we do would always be in favor of nature, never against nature. She said that human welfare lies in maintaining the balance between nature and development.
Addressing the gathering, the President said that it is a top priority for all of us to ensure that future generations breathe in a pollution-free environment, progress well, and live healthy lives.
