Tree climbers!


We have enlisted 22,000 block supervisors across the country under the Agricultural Extension Department ( AED ) of the Ministry of Agriculture who do not climb the trees for pruning, grafting and plucking of fruits and pods.

Remember those days after independence! Every government, NGO and British American Tobacco (BAT) was very keen about tree plantation across the country for ecological balance and for reaping more fruits, seeds and wood.

The ministry, departments, NGOs and British American Tobacco Company should employ thousands of well-trained youths across the country as 'tree climbers' for retrieving more fruits, pods, herbs, saplings and wood all year round and help the Green Revolution .
