Standard Bank Limited recently organised a tree plantation programme at the mid island of streets at Aftabnagar Project of the bank’s client Eastern Housing Limited marking the National Mourning Day.

Alongside of an environment saving initiative, keeping in mind the beautification aspect, Krishnachura and Radhachura have been selected to be planted, said a media release on Wednesday. Managing Director & CEO of the bank, Khandaker Rashed Maqsood, Manager of SBL Principal Branch Ramiz Uddin Miah, acting Company Secretary Ali Reza, and senior officials of Eastern Housing Limited were present on the occasion.

In addition, fruit, forest and medicinal tree saplings are being distributed among the customers through 138 branches of the bank across the country under the tree planting program. At the end of the program, Khandaker Rashed Maqsood lauded the environment friendly program adopted by the government on the occasion of National Mourning.

“To protect the environment and our health, above all, ensuring a livable world for the next generation, requires tree plantation to become a social movement,” he said.
