Printed from Haryana to seek Unesco heritage tag for Aravalis Vimal Chander Joshi,TNN | Jul 14, 2015, 02.12 AM IST GURGAON: If there is one hill range in India that deserves to be treasured as heritage it's the Aravalis. The oldest fold s in the country not only restrict the Thar Desert to a small part of Rajasthan, but also act as the primary source of groundwater recharge and green lung of NCR. The Haryana government, it seems, has finally woken up to the importance of the hills as it is preparing to apply for Unesco World Heritage Site status for the Aravalis. TOI has learnt that chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar met with top officials from forest and tourism departments last week to discuss the proposal. "The chief minister was apprised of the plan. The Aravali range in Haryana encapsulates an extremely rare topography that breeds plants that grow in places as diverse as Northern India, Shivalik and Thar Desert. We are sure that Unesco would recognize the legacy of these hills," confirmed a forest department official, who attended the last week's meeting, on the condition of anonymity. Environmentalists are celebrating the proposal for a different reason. "You will not find a range inhabited by leopards, hyena and nilgai so close to a big city. But these hills have been terribly exploited by the mining mafia. We hope this move helps in preserving the range," said Amina Shervani, an environmental activist. At a recently held seminar on Aravali range, state environment minister Captain Abhimanyu had conceded Aravali's significance and promised work on Aravali Master plan. "The minister had underlined that the pristine range is more than 3.2 billion years old and they ought to be preserved," said the official. The Aravali range in Haryana covers nearly 2,000 villages in seven districts Gurgaon, Faridabad, Mewat, Rewari, Mohindergarh, Palwal and Bhiwani. There are 1,031 World Heritage Sites of which 197 are natural sites. India has 32 such sites, of which seven are natural including Kaziranga National Park, Keoladeo National Park and Western Ghats. If the Aravalis is given the status, it would be the first World Heritage site in Haryana. Stay updated on the go with Times of India News App. Click here to download it for your device.

Happening Haryana Global Investors Summit 2016”
Address from H.E. Mr. Kenji HIRMATSU, Ambassador of Japan to India, on the occasion of Inauguration of “Happening Haryana Global Investors Summit 2016” – 7th March, 2016 – H.E. Mr. Manohar Lal Khattar, Chief Minister of the State of Haryana, H.E. Captain Abhimanyu, Minister of Industries and Commerce, the State of Haryana, H.E. Mr. Arun Jaitley, Union Minister of Finance, H.E. Mr. Venkiah Naidu, Minister of Urban Development, Housing and Urban Povery Alleviation. Honourable Ministers from the Union Government of India, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, It is a great pleasure for me to be able to attend this event representing Japan as a Partner Country and address you all on behalf of the Government of Japan. The State of Haryana hosts the greatest number of Japanese companies among the States in India. According to the latest survey announced by the Embassy of Japan last month, there are 305 Japanese companies operating in Haryana, surpassing by far the second-ranked Maharashtra, which hosts 203 Japanese companies. I understand that the presence of Japanese companies in Haryana is the largest as compared to that of companies from other foreign countries. In addition to manufacturing plants, many Japanese companies have their offices to deploy their business activities all over India from Gurgaon. The Japanese Government as well as the Japanese business community attach a great importance to the good relationship with Haryana as a manufacturing base, supply base, and headquarters for Japanese companies in North India. The successful visit to Japan of H.E. Mr. Manohar Lal Khatar in January this year has further enhanced this already strong relationship.
