Tree plantation is a critical activity that helps to maintain the ecological balance and combat climate change. Anjur village is a rural area in India facing environmental degradation due to deforestation, soil erosion, and declining water resources. In response to this problem, a tree plantation drive was initiated in Anjur village to promote reforestation and improve the environment. The Tree Plantation at the Anjur village followed the medical camp. The Headmaster of the Government Higher Secondary School, Anjur, supported planting 40 saplings around the school campus. All the members have actively taken part in tree plantation. The tree plantation drive in Anjur village has been a success, thanks to the collaboration between various stakeholders and the active involvement of the local community.
