We are proud to present website of our department. As of now we can say this website  is one of  best site ever developed by departments of Punjab Govt till now. We are also first among the various departments for implementation of 'Right's to Information Act 2005 of Punjab Govt'. .

Conservation of natural resources has become a very complex task in view of over exploitation of these resources. Rapid industrialization have brought about over- concentration and congestion specially in larger urban agglomerations and decreasing land holdings have put pressure on  thereby making task of management of land even more difficult. Punjab have limited area and impact of green revolution has no doubt increased food grain production and improved the economic position of people of Punjab but it has put intense pressure on our natural resources of soil and water, following of paddy-wheat pattern year after year has rendered our soil health very poor and drastic effect on ground water resources. The need of hour is to adopt a more hostile approach that would maintain the fragile balance between the resource utilization and envoirmental integrity in a sustained manner.
