New Delhi, Jan 10 (IANS) Environment and Forests Minister Prakash Javadekar said Saturday that the government is committed to turn around the ministry's image as a "roadblock" ministry and ensure development without destruction.

Javadekar said he will ensure aggressive afforestation and at least three trees will be planted for every tree that is cut.
