An environment protection official pledged intensified efforts to deal with the grievances of park rangers over lack of an insurance coverage, outstanding pay and a staff shortage.
“We have identified the main problems in the environmental protection sector and have solved many of them. You will witness tangible progress in this relation by the year-end [March 20],” Commander of the Department of Environment’s Protection Unit Jamshid Mohabbatkhani said on Tuesday.
He was addressing a ceremony in the northeastern city of Mashhad to mark National Ranger Day, where some park rangers were honored for their outstanding service.
The national occasion comes a week ahead of the World Ranger Day.
