Eighteen Namo Oxygen Parks were inaugurated across New Delhi on World Environment Day 2026 under the ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’ campaign. The initiative was launched by Union Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav and Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta to improve urban air quality, increase green cover, enhance biodiversity, and provide recreational green spaces for citizens. The parks are designed to function as urban green lungs and support environmental sustainability. Alongside this initiative, the Delhi Government announced a target of planting 15 lakh trees and released important environmental planning documents to strengthen conservation and ecological governance in the national capital.
