Union Health Minister J P Nadda on Wednesday inaugurated the "Namo Van" in Rohtak city by planting a sapling on the occasion of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday.
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, Co-operation Minister Arvind Sharma, Health Minister Arti Singh Rao, and BJP state president Mohan Lal Badoli were also present at the event, an official statement said.
Nadda and the Chief Minister pledged to protect the environment by planting around 10,000 saplings in the “Namo Van” with the help of Rohtak residents.
Speaking to nature lovers, Nadda said Prime Minister Modi, through his vision of healthy living in a clean environment, is guiding the nation towards a developed India. He added that it was everyone’s responsibility to contribute to this vision.
He also encouraged women to take part in protecting the environment the same way they manage their homes and urged them to become guardians of nature by planting more trees.
A large number of women present at the event assured Nadda and Saini of their active support for the prime minister’s campaign for a clean and healthy India.
Later in the day, Nadda and Chief Minister Saini watched the live telecast of Prime Minister Modi launching the ‘Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar’ and the 8th ‘Rashtriya Poshan Mah’ campaigns from Dhar in Madhya Pradesh. These campaigns focus on improving women’s health and promoting nutrition.
