Meghalaya Governor Advocates for Plant Conservation at Tree Planting
The Meghalaya Governor, who really likes plants, talked about taking care of the special plants that grow in the area.
He said planting lots of different kinds of plants is good, but planting only one kind can be bad for the environment.
The government and forest department worked together to plant trees.
The Chief Minister said they're all working together to fight climate change.
They're also building a new building for the government, but it's taking longer and costing more money than they first thought.

The tree planting was organized by the Meghalaya Assembly with the Forest Department.
