Sultnapur
Lodhi, 26th July
During
the campaign of plantation under the leadership of Environment lover Padma
Shree Sant Balbir Singh Seechewal Ji, 400 plants have been planted on the roads
of Dona area. These plants have been dedicated to the 400th Prakash Purb of
Shree Guru Teg Bahadur Ji. Sant Seechewal Ji told that Guru Sahiban Baani
always preaches to have relationship with the nature. The campaign to plant 550
plants in every village was also started on the 550th Prakash Purb of Guru
Nanak Dev Ji, that had attracted the people to plant trees in the villages.
He
said that the capable gurus have always been the true guide. Among the big
historic villages of Dona, at Talwandi Madho the trees on the roads of this
village are being planted on large scale. The leading youths of this village Gurwinder
Singh Boparai and Amrik Singh Sandhu said that preference is being given to the
traditional trees of Punjab. They said in every area the special types of trees
are grown and for the decades the traditional trees of Punjab are vanishing.
Toot, Tahlian, Kikr, Jamun, Nimm, Bohad, Peepal, Pilkan. Beri and mango etc
trees used to be the identification of the Punjab. The number of these trees are lessening very fast.
The
traditional trees of Punjab are being planted on the treatment plant made with
desi techniques to treat the contaminated water of Talwandi Madho. Along with
it the plants are being planted on the roads that were in the past the dirt
tracks and with the karsewa of Sant Seechewal Ji on those roads, now the
picture and destiny of the area has changed.
The
Sikh Chintak Paul Singh France who had lead the Turban war at France said that
the trees of Jamun and Nimm planted on the roads of Dona area present a
beautiful view. They told that they often pass through these roads, whereas in
the past these paths were surrounded with the sand dunes now passing through
these tunnels of the groves of the trees we are deluded as we are going through
foreign roads. We are really thankful to Sant Seechewal Ji for changing the
picture and destiny of the area.
