Over the past one year, the volunteers have planted about 8000 saplings on the once barren hill. They even took over the nurturing of plants and reported a survival rate of 98 percent!

Thane has taken this unique initiative in order to encourage citizens to practice safe waste-disposal.

The Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway has safety features like trauma rooms, an alarm system and constant video surveillance.
