Srikakulam Leads AP's Coastal Protection Efforts

The Great Green Wall project in Andhra Pradesh is a big effort to plant trees along the coast to protect people and buildings from storms and tsunamis.

Srikakulam district is leading this effort with the longest coastline and the most protected areas.

In 2025, they planted a lot of Palmyra trees, and they plan to plant even more in the next few years.

The project is not just about trees; it's also about making the coast stronger and safer for everyone who lives there.

The Indian Navy and local government are helping to take care of the mangroves, which are important for protecting the coast.

The goal is to make sure that the coast is safe and can handle big storms in the future.
