To make this earth Clean and Green, Tree Plantation is necessary, only then the coming generations will be able to enjoy the beauty of this nature and make this world pollution free. Nirankari Baba Hardev Singh Ji too quoted that pollution whether inside or outside is harmful. So, it must be removed from the mind as well as the environment. Taking a step further, under the guidance of Satguru Mata Savinder Hardev Ji Maharaj, Nirankari devotees participated in the Green City Drive launched by Times of India, Hero Group and planted around 20000 saplings of plants in Forest Herbal Park earmarked at Peer Muchalla, Zirakpur today.
On this occasion Chandigarh Zonal Incharge Sh.K.K.Kashyap said that Sant Nirankari Charitable Foundation with the support of Times of India Group, Hero Group, tree plantation was organised in Forest Herbal Park. Around 2000 Sewadal devotees of 15 branches of Chandigarh Zone participated in this drive of tree plantation.
Shri Kashyap Ji said that the principal commitment of the Sant Nirankari Mission has always been to improve the man’s quality of life through spiritual enlightenment or God-knowledge. It has, however, been conscious of its responsibility towards social welfare, like other citizens of the country.
