PNB Investment Services Ltd. Joins Hands with Delhi Greens for Green Initiative

Initiative “Greening Delhi for the Future” begins with planting 300 trees

New Delhi, 17 March, 2026 – Delhi Greens NGO is delighted to announce its partnership with PNB Investment Services Ltd. for an ambitious tree plantation initiative aimed at increasing the green cover across the capital city. Under the banner “Greening Delhi for the Future,” this collaboration marks a significant step toward environmental restoration and sustainable urban development in Delhi.

The initiative has been commenced with the plantation of 300 trees across strategic locations in Delhi. PNB Investment Services Ltd.’s support comes at a crucial time when the city faces pressing environmental challenges, including deteriorating air quality and diminishing green spaces. This partnership represents a corporate commitment to environmental stewardship and community welfare.

“While financial performance is important, we believe that true success lies in the positive and lasting impact we create for our communities and for the nation; our partnership with Delhi Greens reflects our commitment to environmental stewardship and a greener future for the next generation, said Sh. Gyanendra Kishor, Chief Operating Officer & CFO of PNB Investment Services Ltd. He added, “The Company is committed to planting 300 trees across Delhi in the current financial year and will plant an additional 700 trees next year as part of our long-term sustainability efforts.”

“We are happy to receive partnership support from PNB Investment Services Ltd. in this vital mission of greening Delhi,” said Ms. Nirmala Konsam, Executive Director of Delhi Greens NGO. “Their support enables us to take concrete action toward making Delhi greener and healthier. This is not just about planting trees; it’s about nurturing hope, protecting our environment and securing a liveable future for generations to come. Every tree we plant today is an investment in tomorrow.”

The initiative adopts a slow and steady approach, emphasizing quality over quantity and creating Miyawaki forest-based greenbelts. Rather than pursuing massive one-time plantations, the programme focuses on careful planning, proper plantation techniques and long-term care and maintenance of planted trees. The learnings from the initial phase will inform future expansion, with plans to gradually increase the number of trees planted in subsequent years while ensuring high survival rates through dedicated monitoring and protection measures.

Trees play an indispensable role in urban ecosystems. They purify the air by absorbing pollutants, provide oxygen, reduce ambient temperatures through shade and transpiration, prevent soil erosion, support biodiversity and enhance the aesthetic and psychological well-being of city residents. In a densely populated metropolis like Delhi, where green spaces are under constant pressure from urbanisation, every tree becomes crucial for maintaining ecological balance.

Delhi Greens NGO recognizes that successful environmental conservation requires community participation. The organisation strongly urges all citizens, resident welfare associations, schools, businesses and government bodies to join the movement by planting and protecting trees in their localities. Individual and collective action, no matter how small, contributes significantly to the larger goal of environmental sustainability.

A Video Song (Hindi) was also released on the campaign theme of “Greening Delhi for the future” to encourage everyone to plant & protect trees.

The “Greening Delhi for the Future” initiative will involve local communities in the plantation process, conduct awareness programmes about tree care and establish monitoring systems to ensure the healthy growth of planted saplings. Species selection will prioritize native trees that are well-adapted to Delhi’s climate and provide maximum ecological benefits.

PNB Investment Services Ltd.’s contribution demonstrates the vital role that corporate entities can play in addressing environmental challenges. This partnership serves as an inspiring model for other organisations to step forward and support environmental initiatives in their communities.
