Rishikesh. Taking a commendable step towards environmental protection, television actress Shanaya Sharma joined hands with the renowned spiritual leader Mahamandaleshwar Avdhut Baba Arun Giri, popularly known as ‘Environment Baba’, for a tree plantation drive at his ashram in Prayagraj. The event saw the active participation of saints, devotees, and nature enthusiasts, who collectively spread the message of conserving nature.
During the plantation, Shanaya personally planted saplings alongside Baba and appealed to the public to plant at least one tree in their lifetime and take responsibility for its care. She emphasized that collective efforts are essential to combat serious issues like climate change and pollution.
Avdhut Baba Arun Giri, fondly called ‘Environment Baba’, has been spearheading plantation and greenery campaigns for several years. His ashram has now become a center for environmental awareness, afforestation, and sustainable living. Sharing his vision, he said—
“Tree plantation is the truest form of worship. If every individual plants even one tree a year, we can ensure a green and safe future for generations to come.”
