The 'Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam' campaign, launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is gaining traction across the country. The Society for Environment and Rural Development is spearheading efforts in Uttarakhand under Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami's guidance.
President Indrajit Singh Kadakoti and other office bearers of the Society have undertaken extensive plantation drives in areas like 11 Battalion SSB DDhat and in collaboration with 7 Battalion ITBP Mirthi and Centralized Training Center, Srinagar (Garhwal).
