The plantation drive aimed to achieve the following objectives:

• Engage Community Participation: Foster a sense of environmental stewardship among villagers by involving them directly in the planting and care of saplings.
• Honor Mothers: Dedicate each sapling to mothers, celebrating their nurturing roles and highlighting the connection between motherhood and nature.

The inaugural speeches were followed by the traditional lighting of the lamp and a prayer for the success of the plantation drive.
2. Simultaneous Plantation Drives in Both Villages:
Following the inauguration, the participants split into groups to carry out simultaneous plantation activities in Naslapur and Nandikurli. A total of 50 saplings, including fruit-bearing and native tree species like neem, banyan, mango, and peepal, were planted across designated areas in both villages. The planting sites were strategically chosen based on soil conditions and the need for greenery in community spaces, schoolyards, and roadside areas.
3. Sapling Dedication Ceremony:
In line with the "Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam" campaign, each sapling was dedicated to a mother, symbolizing the nurturing and protective role of mothers in society. This dedication ceremony was a poignant moment that reinforced the theme of the campaign and encouraged participants to view the saplings as living tributes to their mothers.
4. Awareness Sessions:
Post-plantation, the student coordinators conducted interactive awareness sessions in both villages, focusing on the importance of trees in ecological balance, the process of nurturing saplings, and ways to protect young trees from pests and environmental stress. These sessions were aimed at educating the villagers on sustainable practices and encouraging them to take ownership of the saplings planted.
5. Community Interaction and Feedback:
The event provided an excellent platform for interaction between the students, Gram Panchayat members, and local residents. Discussions on future initiatives under the UBA and feedback from the villagers were collected to plan more effective and community-centric activities.
Impact and Outcomes
• Increased Green Cover: The plantation of 50 saplings is expected to enhance the green cover in Naslapur and Nandikurli, contributing to better air quality, shade, and biodiversity in the region.

This initiative not only contributed to environmental conservation but also served as a meaningful tribute to mothers, aligning with the cultural values and traditions of the region.
Future Plans
To build on the success of this event, the following steps are proposed:
• Regular Monitoring and Maintenance: Organize regular visits to monitor the growth of the saplings and ensure their proper maintenance.
