A three-day Green Property Show 2023, being organised by Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) in partnership with Telangana government, opened at Hitex here on Friday with speakers led by IT Minister K.T. Rama Rao, at its inauguration, underscoring the significance of green buildings, including the cost and health benefits for the residents.
More than 75 exhibitors are showcasing green-rated residential and commercial properties as well as products and services. A first-of-its-kind event in the country, the expo seeks to sensitise and motivate buyers to invest in a greener future by choosing IGBC certified or pre-certified green projects, technologies and services over conventional buildings, said the Council, which is a part of industry body CII.
Mr. Rao said that Telangana government has been in the forefront of improving the green footprint. Besides achieving considerable success under the Haritha Haram programme to enhance the green cover, the State also plays host to the country’s first green building (IGBC headquarters), home, airport, railway station and factory building.
