Congratulating the Jashpur Forest Division, the Forest Department, and all citizens involved in the campaign, Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai stated that environmental conservation is not merely a government obligation but a collective responsibility of society. He remarked that the “Beej Gola Banabo, Jashpur ke Jungle La Badhabo” (Make Seed Balls, Expand Jashpur’s Forests) campaign in Jashpur has emerged as an excellent example of public participation and nature conservation.<\/p>\n
Chief Minister Shri Sai said that when the government, administration, and society unite for a positive cause, even seemingly impossible goals can be achieved with ease. He added that this achievement is a source of pride not only for Jashpur but for the entire state of Chhattisgarh and will serve as an inspiration for other districts in the field of environmental conservation.<\/p>\n
Under the ambitious campaign “Beej Gola Banabo, Jashpur ke Jungle La Badhabo” conducted by the Jashpur Forest Division, a large-scale seed ball dispersal program was organized across various areas of the district. The campaign aims to strengthen environmental balance through the conservation of natural vegetation, the enhancement of biodiversity, and the expansion of green cover.<\/p>\n
A standout feature of the campaign was the extensive public participation witnessed throughout the initiative. Local villagers, public representatives, students, women’s self-help groups, social organizations, Forest Department officials and staff, and ordinary citizens participated enthusiastically. Driven by the cooperation of thousands of people, this campaign evolved into a mass movement, setting a new record by dispersing over 200,000 seed balls in a single day.<\/p>\n
This achievement has earned Jashpur district a new identity at both national and international levels. It has also demonstrated that significant, positive results in environmental conservation can be achieved through community participation.<\/p>\n
