While addressing the students Shri Ratho said that “It’s delighting to see the happy faces of children while planting trees, they enjoy this task of plantation and should be encouraged so as to build a better world. One should learn the skills of life from trees and connect with the nature, as sowing a sapling today will be the oxygen cylinders of tomorrow and make this earth a better and a greener planet to live in happily. Be compassionate to nature and it will surely reward you.” He also stated that Odisha has just right number of forest cover as per the National Forest Policy.

SAIoneer Saniya Mazumdar of SAI International Residential School said that, “every year we celebrate Van Mahotsav in a grand way by planning trees in our campus, since the last year when the pandemic began, we students haven’t been able to do plantation in the school premises, but do it at our homes as its engrained in us by the school to love nature and plant as many trees as possible”.

Speaking on the occasion Co-founder SAI International Education Group, Dr Silpi Sahoo said,” SAI International believes in instilling a feeling of belongingness and empathy toward the mother earth and I would appeal to all my SAIoneers to go green by planting saplings and going paperless to help save the world from global warming and other elements which are destroying the weather, nature and world”.
