Residents plant mangroves
Residents of Regent Ganga, a housing complex in Hooghly s Uttarpara, have planted around 5,000 mangrove saplings along the Hooghly to prevent the erosion of the riverbank near which their homes are located. The occupants of the gated complex said they were trying to put up a mangrove shield to save their homes after the river advanced by 24 feet towards their residences in the past 10 years. The saplings were planted in June. The residents had planted mangrove saplings like garjan (Rhizophora mucronata), kankra (Bruguiera gymnorrhiza) and keora (Sonneratia apetala).
