The recent meeting between India’s Vice President Shri Jagdeep Dhankhar and his wife Smt. Sudesh Dhankhar with Revered Maharaj Shri Pundrik Goswami Ji has elevated Tree Day to new heights. On July 17, 2024, Revered Shri Pundrik Goswami Ji met with Vice President Shri Jagdeep Dhankhar and his wife Smt. Sudesh Dhankhar in Delhi. While Maharaj Ji and Shri Dhankhar have had many discussions in the past, this time Maharaj Ji did not come for any discussion but to invite the honorable Vice President to participate in the Tree Day celebration in honor of his upcoming birthday.
The significance lies in the fact that both Smt. Sudesh Dhankhar and Revered Maharaj Shri Pundrik Goswami Ji celebrate their birthdays on July 20. Maharaj Ji has decided to commemorate his birthday as Tree Planting Day. Announcing the celebration of their birthdays and Tree Day, Revered Maharaj Shri Pundrik Goswami Ji expressed his gratitude to the Vice President by presenting him with a plant. Notably, Shri Jagdeep Dhankhar assumed office as India’s Vice President two years ago this July and has since made several significant contributions to the nation. This meeting is seen not only as a gesture of familial warmth but also as a shared commitment to the environment by Maharaj Ji and Vice President Dhankhar.
This initiative to celebrate their birthdays by planting trees is sure to instill environmental sensitivity and responsibility among the youth. Maharaj Ji’s gesture of presenting a plant to Vice President Dhankhar has been highly appreciated by the youth of India and devotees abroad, spreading awareness about environmental conservation.
