People cannot live without trees. But in today’s world, deforestation has posed a serious threat to ecology. Trees play a major role in survival of life in many different ways. Trees provide us oxygen that we breathe to live. Trees also absorb many pollutants like carbon mono oxide and sulphur di oxide. So without trees life is not possible at all, he further added.
Khataniar told that he has the dream to spread his mission in a revolutionary manner throughout the country in future.
In the last seven years, the organization has planted more than 25,000 trees with proper protection in various places of Lower Assam and is planning to plant trees all over India to save nature.
