The UNM Foundation, the philanthropic division of the Torrent Group, has made significant strides in its environmental efforts through new partnerships for lake maintenance in Gujarat. The foundation inked six memorandums of understanding with civic authorities, aiming for the sustained upkeep of 69 lakes across Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.

These agreements, formalized at the Startup Conclave 2025 in Gandhinagar, received significant attention with Union Home Minister Amit Shah in attendance. This development marks a major step in the Foundation's ongoing PRATITI initiative, dedicated to ecological restoration.

The MoUs promise to boost urban water body restoration, biodiversity improvement, and foster community involvement. With the inclusion of this venture, UNM Foundation now covers over 28 million square metres in public parks and water bodies management within Gujarat, with future expansions likely.
