I request everyone to definitely join this campaign of serving nature", he added. The Union Minister arrived in Ranchi, earlier today. He is also the Jharkhand Assembly election in-charge of the BJP.

Chouhan, along with his election co-incharge and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, held a meeting to discuss the strategy for the upcoming Assembly elections. Earlier on Saturday, Shivraj Singh Chouhan planted a tree at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute Campus in Delhi.

Chouhan emphasized that trees are the protectors of our lives. "As part of the pledge to plant a tree every day, today a tree was planted at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Pusa campus, New Delhi. Trees are the life of nature and they are also the protectors of our lives. You are requested to contribute to making the earth green and prosperous by planting trees on special occasions", he said in a post on 'X'. (ANI)
