CAG finds 98% shortfall in Green India Mission forest cover targets, red-flags multiple lapses
The Comptroller and Auditor General raised concerns about the inadequacies within the Green India Mission program, noting that the goal of increasing forest cover was far from realized over a decade. The audit pointed to significant issues in planning and financial oversight, which severely undermined the mission’s objectives. Key vulnerable areas were neglected during afforestation, diminishing efforts to combat climate change.
