Indore added another feather to its cap by being designated as a Wetland City by the Ramsar Convention. Madhya Pradesh CM Dr. Mohan Yadav hailed this recognition as a proud achievement for both the state and the country.
CM said that this accolade marks a significant moment of pride for Madhya Pradesh. Ramsar, an international organization dedicated to environmental conservation, announced a list of 31 Wetland Cities on Saturday, recognizing urban centers that excel in preserving wetlands while advancing urban development. For the first time, two Indian cities, Indore and Udaipur, have earned a place on this list.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Indore and Udaipur on joining the list of 31 Wetland Accredited Cities in the world. He remarked that this recognition reflects India’s strong commitment to sustainable development and nurturing harmony between nature and urban growth.
Responding to a post by Union Minister Shri Bhupender Yadav on X, the PM said: “Congratulations to Indore and Udaipur! This recognition reflects our strong commitment to sustainable development and nurturing harmony between nature and urban growth. May this feat inspire everyone to keep working towards creating greener, cleaner and more eco-friendly urban spaces across our nation.”
