Tata Chemicals has been constantly working to conserve local ecosystems over the years. As a result of its continuing efforts, the organization has been able to transform 150 acres of the barren land into the Biological reserve hotspot, 40 acres of which has been achieved last year as a part of the Dry Deciduous Forest Development Project, the company said.
This reserve preserves endangered plant species, flora, fauna and also serves as a refuge for pollinator populations, especially butterflies.
