Afforestation should be done by planting more trees, CM Siddaramaiah said at the Chief Minister's Medal presentation ceremony organized by the Karnataka Forest Department at Vidhana Soudha on Friday. The state will benefit greatly from the expansion of forest area. Although the increase in the number of tigers and elephants in the forests is a matter of joy, the wild animals are entering human habitations and this is creating problems for the forest department as well as the people.
