Tree Plantation  

Arun Singh, a resident of Jaunpur, underwent the horrible experience of getting treated in hospitals on oxygen shortage during the pandemic. He fought and recovered from Covid-19 and spent an extended period in bed. As his health improved, Arun Singh initiated a campaign that focused on planting oxygen-producing trees. He has extended his tree plantation campaign by planting trees in hundreds of primary schools.

Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday said big events can be held while adhering to the protocol pertaining to COVID-19 and the “Van Mahotsav” will be a witness to this.

Around 32,000 saplings were planted at the venue of the event. Officials said around one lakh students and residents are participating in the campaign at 600 locations across the city to fight air pollution.
