Trees Bring Rain: Keshav Prasad Maurya At ‘Plant Trees, Save Trees Jan Abhiyan 2024’

Prayagraj: Prayagraj is creating history by planting 85 lakh trees under the ‘Plant Trees, Save Trees Jan Abhiyan 2024’, with Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya planting a sapling in the Prayagraj Chandrashekhar Azad Park complex named ‘Ek Tree Maa’. Addressing the gathering, he emphasized the need to plant 36 crore 50 lakh saplings statewide today. He stressed that tree plantation not only symbolizes a ceremony but also provides life, water, and air to future generations. Maurya asserted that if rainfall patterns are disrupted, human society bears responsibility for it, and achieving this social goal should be non-negotiable.

Maurya urged public representatives and party officials to actively participate in tree planting, emphasizing the responsibility of nurturing trees like Neem, Peepal, Mahuva, and Shisham during the rainy season. He highlighted the health benefits of Neem trees and encouraged widespread planting. Maurya also suggested integrating tree planting with children’s birthday celebrations to foster a love for trees from a young age.
