The plantation at Rabarka village takes the initiative closer to its target of 50,000 saplings under Project IIL Green
13November 2026, New Delhi: IIL Foundation, the CSR arm of Insecticides (India) Limited (IIL), has planted 10,000 saplings at Rabarka village in Khairthal-Tijara, Rajasthan, to develop a Miyawaki forest under its environmental initiative, Project IIL Green.
The plantation is part of the ‘Green Bhiwadi – Clean Bhiwadi’ campaign and was inaugurated at the cremation ground in Rabarka village. The project is being implemented by EcoSikh Charitable Society in association with the Gram Panchayat of Rabarka.
The Miyawaki forest comprises native plant species and is intended to increase local green cover, support biodiversity and improve the surrounding environment. The Miyawaki method involves dense plantation of native species to establish forest ecosystems in relatively small areas.
Launched in 2024, Project IIL Green aims to develop green spaces through plantation and environmental conservation activities. Since its launch, IIL Foundation has planted more than 30,000 saplings across locations in Bhiwadi and Sotanala, Rajasthan. With the addition of 10,000 saplings at Rabarka, the Foundation is moving towards its target of 50,000 plantations in 2026, as pledged at the initiative’s launch.
Representing IIL Foundation at the inauguration were Dr. Mukesh Kumar, Vice President; Mr. M. K. Rao, Senior General Manager; and Dr. M. M. Gupta, Senior General Manager, along with other representatives of the organisation.
Commenting on the initiative, Mr. Rajesh Aggarwal, Managing Director, Insecticides (India) Limited, said, “As an organisation deeply connected with agriculture, we believe that protecting our environment is integral to securing a better future for agriculture, farmers and generations to come. Through Project IIL Green, our endeavour goes beyond planting trees—we are working towards creating sustainable green spaces that can make a lasting difference to the environment and communities around us. The Miyawaki Forest at Rabarka takes us another step closer to our pledge of planting 50,000 saplings and reinforces our commitment to a greener tomorrow.”
