South Coast Railway (SCoR) observed World Environment Day with a Green Plantation Drive at Mudasarlova, the site of the upcoming South Coast Railway Zonal Headquarters, reaffirming its commitment to environmental sustainability and ecological conservation.
Shri Sandeep Mathur, General Manager, South Coast Railway, along with Smt.

Principal Heads of Departments (PHODs), senior railway officials, and Executive Members of SCoRWWO also took part in the event.
Speaking on the occasion, Shri Sandeep Mathur emphasized the importance of environmental stewardship and sustainable development. He stated, “Every sapling planted today is a step towards a cleaner, greener, and healthier tomorrow. As we build infrastructure for the future, it is equally important that we nurture nature and create sustainable ecosystems for generations to come.” Following this, a pledge was administered, reaffirming the commitment to environmental conservation.
As part of the celebrations, an innovative ‘Make in India Lion’ Waste-to-Art installation was unveiled by Shri Sandeep Mathur at the venue.
