Answer:
Van Mahotsav (Hindi for Forest Festival) is an annual one week tree planting festival in India which is celebrated in the first week of July[1]. It was started in the year 1950 by Kanaiyalal Maneklal Munshi[2] by planting a tree at Rajghat, Delhi.
Aims for the festival celebrated in India Edit
By encouraging Indians to support tree planting and tending, festival organizers hope to create more forest in the country. It would provide alternative fuels, increasing production of food resources, creating shelter-belts around fields to increase productivity, provide food and shade for cattle, offer shade and decorative landscapes, reducing drought and helping to prevent soil erosion. The first week of July is just the right time for planting trees in most parts of India since it coincides with the monsoon. K.M Munshi is called the father of van mahotsav.
