Afforestation Campaign:

A tree is, perhaps, the most valuable gift provided to mankind by Mother Nature. It gives us what is required for living human life. Their very birth starts with the process of providing wood, shade, fruits and oxygen. In cutting down trees, humans fail to see their purpose and by destroying trees they destroy the land itself.

There was little hope this year when the entire Raichur had some good showers of rain. A campaign was organized at utaknoor High school of Raichur district by the Vimukti Charitable Trust to create awareness against the growing amputation of trees and of the need to preserve trees. Raichur being an area that faces scarcity of rain is prone to face extinction of trees. Besides, people cut trees as it serve them as firewood material. The programme began by welcoming the entire guest to the dais. The guests were, namely Fr. Dancy, the Principal of Sneha Joythi School Pothnal as the president, Mr. Basawaraj head Master, Hanumantha Gram Panchyath President, Dasai SDMC President, were guest on the dais. The whole gathering was an input session with regard to the usefulness of planting trees and protecting our environment. President said in his speech “take care of the earth and she will take care of you”

Many participated in the event of plantation of trees. The people and the children were enlightened by the prominent people who addressed the gathering. They were given the responsibility of taking care of those plants by watering them time to time and looking after them well. Many plants were planted in the surroundings of the Utakanur High school. The children were given some sweets at the end of this program.
