Harnessing the immense hidden sustainable economic potential of indigenous materials like bamboo isa passionate subject for me personally and hence I try to associate with such initiatives which can help in achieving a sustainable development.
Madhya Pradesh government has resolved to make the state a leading Bamboo State and the country a Bamboo Capital of the world. I'm confident that not only in the country but in the world, Madhya Pradesh will be able to set a new record in the region of bamboo-based development.
