Grand Plantation Drive “Ek Ped, Desh Ke Naam” Sparks Long-Term Green Commitment in Faridabad
Faridabad, July 19, 2026: The Paryavaran Sanrakshan Gatividhi (Faridabad East) successfully organized a grand plantation drive at the Sector 10 Old Age Home under the inspiring national initiative “Ek Ped, Desh Ke Naam” (One Tree in the Name of the Nation). The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from local residents alongside a host of distinguished dignitaries, including Councilor Mukesh Aggarwal, renowned social worker Banwari Lal Garg, Sector 9 RWA President Ranveer Choudhary, Sector 9 Market Committee President Satveer Choudhary, Dr. Sanjay Garg, Subhash Garg, Chairperson Ram Niwas Jhaveri, Kishan ASI, Co-coordinator Atul Mangala, NGO leaders Monika Gupta, Sarita Goyal, Karan Goyal, Khushi Goyal, and the Old Age Home’s director, Anita Malik. While planting saplings symbolizes a beautiful beginning, the core focus of the drive was rooted in sustainability. Community initiatives like these are vital because they bridge urban gaps, restore local biodiversity, and combat rising temperatures. However, planting is only half the battle; survival is the true victory. The organizers emphasized that true environmental responsibility requires individuals to not just plant, but formally adopt each sapling for at least three years—providing the consistent watering, protection, and care necessary for the roots to stabilize until the trees can independently thrive and survive.
Looking ahead to deepen this impact, Achievers Talk, alongside this highly enthusiastic team, will actively join hands with Paryavaran Paathshala to drive structured environmental education and grassroots action. Moving beyond symbolic acts, this collaborative powerhouse will regularly recognize and honor dedicated community members who exhibit extraordinary commitment to civic and ecological welfare. By celebrating these green champions, the initiative aims to inspire sustainable, long-term community service, ensuring that the seeds planted today grow into a robust, protective canopy for Faridabad’s future generations. Concluding the successful event, Dinesh Goyal, District Coordinator of Paryavaran Sanrakshan Gatividhi (Faridabad East), expressed deep gratitude to all attendees, noting that the collective ownership shown by responsible citizens marks a significant milestone in fostering a permanent culture of environmental stewardship.
