Mr. Birendra Poudel, chairman of Nepal Friendship Society (NFS) an NGO invited me to help in the coordination of Plantation campaign scheduled for 29th June i.e. today. So after receiving this kind invitation, I requested Rahul and Upakar brother as well as Aksana sister and my friend Ashish to join along with me. They were ready and excited for the event (as always). So, waking up early in the morning at 4.30 am I took a bath and followed other daily routine. I reached the venue Pokhari Tole, Chitwan Nepal at 6.15am and shortly afterwards brothers and sister also arrived.

We had total of 200 saplings of Kamini species (Murraya paniculata), a tropical evergreen plant. Local villagers gathered at the cross road of venue and started cleaning the area for plantation on the side of highway. It was a privilege to have chief officer from Bharatpur Sub- Metropolitan municipality who inaugurated by planting one sapling. Few saplings were transplanted on the side of road, fenced with protective bamboo frame. Manure and fertile soil was mixed in the spot dug for plantation.  Then after, two saplings were handed to each household of that administrative area for planting in their home.

Local village improvement committee took the responsibility for monitoring and supervision of the planted and distributed saplings. We really enjoyed working for greening our environment along with active participation of local people. The campaign lasted for almost three hours.

PS: As a thanks giving to ever supportive Mr. Birendra Poudel, I have requested for promotional good with our own Tunza Eco- generation. I will post the picture of handing over souvenir in my next report.
