NEW DELHI: But Delhi's forest cover recorded a minute reduction of 0.08 sq km between 2021 and 2023, the report released on Saturday said.

According to the United Nations criteria of urban agglomerations, a mega city has a population of 10 million or more. In India, six cities meet this criterion - Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata. In addition, Ahmedabad is also a rapidly growing city that is on the verge of becoming a mega city, and the State of Forest report added the Gujarat city to this list.

Delhi had 195.28 sq km of forest cover in 2023 - which translates to 13.17% of its total area of 1,483 sq km, the report said. This was a slight drop from the 195.36 sq km of forest cover recorded in 2021 - the last time a State of Forest report was released.

Mumbai is second on the list, with a forest cover of 110.84 sq km, followed by Bengaluru (89.61 sq km).
