The Mero Rukh Mero Santati initiative by the Sikkim government aims to plant 108 trees for every newborn child in the state.
This initiative is a blend of environmental conservation and cultural tradition, promoting tree plantation as a sacred duty associated with childbirth. The number 108, considered holy in Indian tradition, symbolizes blessings and life. The initiative has garnered international attention, including praise from world leaders at COP28 in Dubai. The planting season is typically during the monsoon, and the initiative has seen significant participation from families across Sikkim.
