Plantation Drive by Shri Kunj Bihari Radha Rani Charitable Trust: Our Goal of 2,00,000 Plants
Planting a tree takes an hour. Keeping it alive takes months of watering, protecting and caring. At Shri Kunj Bihari Radha Rani Charitable Trust in Shahdara, Delhi, we have set ourselves a clear goal: to plant 2,00,000 (2 lakh) plants and to look after them until they stand on their own. Not a number on a banner, but trees that actually grow.

Why We Are Planting 2,00,000 Plants
Delhi’s air, heat and shrinking green spaces affect everyone who lives here, especially children, the elderly and families who spend most of the day outdoors. Trees give shade, cleaner surroundings, shelter for birds and a little relief from the city’s heat. A single tree helps. Thousands working together change a neighbourhood.
We are a young organisation, and 2,00,000 plants is a big goal. We would rather set a goal that stretches us and work toward it honestly, one drive at a time, than promise something we cannot keep track of.
Our Plantation Aim
2,00,000 Plants, Step by Step
We will reach our target through regular drives in schools, colleges, residential colonies, parks and community spaces, rather than one large event. Every drive adds to a running count that we plan to share with our supporters.
A Sapling Only Counts If It Survives
Our promise is simple: we do not count a plant when it is placed in the soil. We count it when it is growing. That is why every drive comes with a plan for watering, protection and follow-up visits.
Adopt What You Plant
We ask every group, whether a class, a family, a resident association or a company team, to adopt the saplings they plant and look after them. Ownership is what turns a plantation drive into a living tree.
Native and Suitable Species
We prefer hardy, locally suited trees and plants that can cope with Delhi’s climate and support birds and insects, such as neem, peepal, jamun, arjun, amla and bael, chosen according to the site and the season.
How a Plantation Drive Works
- Choose the site: We identify a school, college, park, colony or open space with permission and a person responsible for it.
- Prepare the saplings and tools: We arrange healthy saplings, tree guards where needed, water and basic tools.
- Plant together: Students, volunteers and residents plant side by side, with a short guidance session on how to plant and why spacing and depth matter.
- Assign care: Each sapling or group of saplings is adopted by a person or team.
- Follow up: We check on growth, replace saplings that did not survive and keep the count accurate.
Who Can Take Part
Schools and Colleges
Plantation drives are a good way for students to learn responsibility and connect with the environment. We welcome institutions that want to plant on their campus or nearby.
Resident Welfare Associations and Communities
If your colony or society has space for trees along a boundary, park or street, we would be glad to plan a drive with your residents.
Companies and Organisations
Teams looking for a meaningful volunteering day are welcome. We can plan a group drive and help you follow up on what you plant.
Individuals and Families
You can plant with us, adopt a sapling, celebrate a birthday or remember a loved one by planting a tree, or simply spread the word.
Why Looking After Every Tree Matters
Many plantation drives end when the photo is taken. We want ours to start there. Watering through the first dry months, protecting young plants from damage and replacing the ones that do not make it are the parts that decide whether a tree survives. This quiet, steady work is what we mean by Samarpan, staying committed after the event is over.
