In a significant step towards environmental conservation, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath inaugurated the ‘Vriksharopan Jan Abhiyan-2023’, a state-wide tree plantation campaign. The launch event commenced with CM Yogi planting a sacred Kalpavriksha at Vidur Kuti Ashram in the Bijnor district, setting the tone for a massive public movement dedicated to safeguarding the environment.
Addressing the gathering, CM Yogi expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to inaugurate the initiative with the symbolic planting of a holy Kalpavriksha. He highlighted the importance of public participation in this noble endeavor, stating that the campaign has evolved into a ‘Jan Andolan’ – a people’s movement – for the protection of the environment.
The ‘Vriksharopan Jan Abhiyan-2023’ seeks to foster a culture of tree plantation and green initiatives across the state. CM Yogi urged citizens to actively engage in this public welfare program, emphasizing the need for unwavering commitment to tree plantation. He stressed that the planting of trees should continue relentlessly, as every tree contributes to creating a greener and more sustainable future for generations to come.
The symbolic planting of the Kalpavriksha, often considered a wish-fulfilling divine tree, holds profound significance as it marks the beginning of a holistic approach to environmental protection. This endeavor encompasses not only tree plantation but also raising awareness about the significance of conserving and nurturing our natural resources.
The ‘Vriksharopan Jan Abhiyan-2023’ embodies the spirit of collective responsibility towards the environment. It encourages people from all walks of life to come together and actively contribute to this vital cause. By making tree plantation a ‘Jan Andolan’, CM Yogi envisions a future where every individual plays a role in preserving nature and combating the challenges posed by climate change.
