The expo with free entry is open till 7 pm. About 30 paintings are on display drawing attention of people towards environment protection and importance of greenery.

He contended that increased population and growth of cities were contributing to pollution of atmosphere. He regretted that about 95% of the population is forced to breathe polluted air.
