This initiative underscores the company’s steadfast commitment to environmental responsibility and its mission to create eco-conscious living spaces.
The event was graced by the presence of distinguished dignitaries, including Mateja Vodeb Ghosh, Ambassador of the Republic of Slovenia, Ms. Tea Pirih, Economic Counsellor of the Republic of Slovenia, Ms VVL Subhadra Devi (IFS), Additional Commissioner, Urban Biodiversity Wing, GHMC and Mr Ashok Pavadia, Former Additional Secretary, Government of India, along with other eminent experts and media representatives.
This landmark project not only highlights Stonecraft Group’s dedication to monitoring air quality for the benefit of the community but also catalyses raising awareness about environmental sustainability. The inauguration ceremony featured a series of meaningful events, including a ribbon-cutting, a symbolic tree-planting activity, and an interactive media session to discuss the project’s broader impacts.
Speaking at the event, Mateja Vodeb Ghosh, Ambassador of the Republic of Slovenia emphasised the global significance of sustainable initiatives, said, ” It is essential for all organisations’—whether governments, NGOs, corporates, or businesses—to collectively work towards improving air quality and promoting environmental sustainability. A key responsibility lies with town planners, architects, and real estate developers, such as Stonecraft Group, headed by Mr Kirthi Chilukuri. Their role in building environmentally sustainable and well-ventilated spaces, with cleaner air and efficient lighting, is critical. Sustainable buildings should use clean water resources, implement water harvesting and recycling, and harness renewable energy. Around the world, we are seeing such innovative projects. It is inspiring to see companies like Stonecraft Group championing sustainability with impactful projects like the AQI Monitoring Station. International cooperation is vital to tackling environmental challenges, and I hope this initiative serves as a beacon for others to follow. These efforts need to be celebrated.”
Mr Kirthi Chilukuri, Founder & Managing Director of Stonecraft Group, reflected on the importance of collective efforts of environmental care and added, ” At Stonecraft, we believe that real estate development is more than just creating physical spaces; it’s about building sustainable communities. The AQI Monitoring Station at Woods Shamshabad is just one of the many steps we are taking towards promoting environmental responsibility. As developers, we have a significant role in shaping spaces that are better ventilated, use clean energy, recycle water, and contribute to the health and well-being of communities. It is crucial for all of us to change our mindset and take personal responsibility for our environment. By fostering a culture of sustainability, we can create impactful change that replicates the kind of eco-friendly habitats we are developing at Stonecraft.”
The AQI Monitoring Station aims to provide critical air quality data, benefiting local communities while contributing to long-term improvements in air quality management. This initiative aligns seamlessly with Stonecraft Group’s vision of combining sustainable practices with innovative living spaces. The inauguration was a perfect opportunity to engage with dignitaries and gain deeper insights into the project’s objectives and impact.
