British Trade delegation shows interest on Green City Mission

UK India Business Council Delegation at Hidco today

A delegation of UK business groups came to meet me to talk about their eagerness in taking part in Urban Development in the state. Some of the companies were as follows: M/s Steer Davies Gleave (public bicycle sharing and transportation), Global Green Solutions, Terra Vac (Arsenic treatment in water), CDE (Construction Demolition waste management), MSR IT, Purcell etc. I informed them of the Green City Mission now being undertaken for all cities of the state and they seemed quite interested in participating actively.
