Keeping the core focus of ‘care for environment’ and ‘care for community’ upon which stands the ideal of sustainability, Tata Power took up the pledge of “conserving the Mahseer”. The fries were carried from “Maharashtra to Himachal Pradesh” whereby a “40-hour journey” was undertaken, before which they fries “were checked for size”.
The C.E.O cum the Managing director of Tata Power, Anil Sardana talked about the said initiative, whereby he added:
“As part of Tata Power’s centenary initiatives, we have reinforced our commitment to Mahseer conservation initiative, which was pioneered by Tata Power in 1975. Till date, the company has produced and distributed in various water bodies, seeds in excess of 10 million fishlings of Mahseer all over India, and we continue to do so, like in the case of Himachal Pradesh, in order to conserve ‘the tiger of the water’.”
Moreover, the initiation known as ‘Act for Mahseer’ has been design to create awareness in public so that they learn more “about the mighty Mahseer” and lend their hand in the preservation of “this valuable fish species in a big way at national level”. Moreover, the initiative has been an instrument for “public campaign” and “has been launched with a three-pronged approach to educate, engage and empower Mahseer lovers”.
