Inspired by the Hon’ble Union Minister of Human Resource Development’s appeal made during the launch of ‘Samagra Shiksha Jal Suraksha’ campaign, the Ministry has requested all the States and UTs that every student must plant a tree on his/her birthday. The students may be encouraged to plant a tree, take a selfie with it and show it to their school teachers. The best efforts of students in tree plantation a may be awarded suitably. The activities may be taken up through the Eco–Clubs also.
