He also emphasised the need for use of latest technology and research to protect environment. Thakur said that keeping in view the environmental degradation and challenges of global warming, there was urgent need to increase forest cover.
Even in HP where 67.5 per cent area was under forests, the need was being felt to enhance green cover.
He asked the probationers to involve themselves with the society so that they could understand the basic issues and aspirations of the people.
This way, they would be able to interact with people and communicate about issues like environment and water conservation in a better way, he said.
The CM wished them success in their future endeavours and pleasant stay in the state.
