Gaurs Group Backs UP Govt’s ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam 2.0’ Campaign with Plantation Drive

Greater Noida/Ghaziabad, July 11, 2025: Gaurs Group has undertaken a massive plantation drive at its two townships, Gaur Yamuna City (Yamuna Expressway) and Gaur City (Greater Noida West), as well as Gaur Aerocity (Ghaziabad) and Siddharth Vihar along with three Gaurs International Schools.

The initiative aligns with the Uttar Pradesh government’s Mega Plantation Drive 2025, “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam 2.0,” under which the state has set a target to plant 370 million saplings to tackle climate change and promote environmental balance. The effort reinforces the group’s deep-rooted commitment to sustainable and community-centric development.

“Environmental consciousness has always been an integral part of our development philosophy. Through consistent green initiatives, we have remained acutely aware of the real estate sector’s responsibility in mitigating environmental issues, like pollution and climate change,” said Manju Gaur, Director, Gaurs Group.

“Supporting the Uttar Pradesh government’s ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam 2.0’ campaign is not just our duty but also strongly aligns with our mission to build healthier, greener and more responsible communities. This plantation drive is another step towards ensuring a more sustainable future for our residents and generations to come.”

Organised by Gaurs Foundation, the CSR arm of Gaurs Group, in association with Raahgiri Trust, the sapling plantation drive was led by students of Gaurs International School. This initiative not only provided a valuable hands-on learning experience but also instilled a sense of environmental responsibility in the young participants.

Gaurs Foundation has been instrumental in driving long-term environmental and social initiatives across the group’s footprint. Over the years, the Gaurs Group has implemented a range of CSR initiatives focused on social welfare and sustainability, including the establishment of a 15 MW solar power plant.

With each green step, Gaursons India Private Limited reaffirms its vision of fostering environmentally responsible urban living while supporting broader governmental and societal missions for a cleaner, greener India.
