    Solution

    The National Highways Authority of India plans to plant around 40 lakh trees during the financial year 2026–27 as part of its environmental infrastructure initiatives. A significant portion of these plantations will support the Bee Corridor concept, which focuses on creating pollinator-friendly vegetation along highways. These plantations will include trees, shrubs, herbs, and grasses selected for their nectar and pollen-producing capacity. The initiative is designed to promote biodiversity conservation, ecological sustainability, and improved pollination services in nearby agricultural landscapes.
