Navratna CPSE National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) to implement a Green Corridor enhancement initiative in the city under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme.

The MoU was signed between the NALCO Foundation and BMC in the presence of Bhubaneswar Mayor Sulochana Das, BMC Commissioner Chanchal Rana, and senior officials from both organisations.

As part of the initiative, NALCO will extend financial assistance for the development and maintenance of a 2.3-kilometre median stretch from Jaydev Vihar Square to Kalinga Hospital Square. The project will also cover the landscaping and upkeep of five green spaces spanning approximately 1,06,524 square metres.

BMC will serve as the nodal agency for the project and will execute the initiative through the Odisha Forest Development Corporation (OFDC). The Green Corridor enhancement project aims to strengthen the city’s urban green cover, improve aesthetic appeal, and promote sustainable environmental management in Bhubaneswar.
