Answer:
Good morning! Respected Principal, teachers and my dear companions. Today we all have gathered here to celebrate Van Mahotsav.
It is an annual tree-planting festival which is celebrated in India every year. It is celebrated in the first week of July that is from 1st July till 7th July.
It was started on 21st august 1950 by Dr. K M Munshi, the union minister for agriculture and food, to spread awareness among the people. Van Mahotsav is also known as the festival of trees and the festival of life. Thousands of saplings are planted across India by the people during this week of the year.
Trees are the most precious gift given to mankind and it is our duty to save it. But man is destroying it for his own selfish needs and ends. He is cutting down the trees and we are steadily moving towards the path of destruction.
Imagine a world where there will be no trees and no forests. I know its really hard to imagine. For the love of nature, we need to save and preserve it.
As mankind is dependent on trees for their needs, this week should be utilized in a creative way. Each one of us present here should plant more n and more trees, spread awareness in forms of street plays or rallies so that even the illiterate section of society could understand its importance. Also, a poster making competition has been organized by the school principal and the best poster will be awarded a cash prize.
The need of the hour is that all the destruction caused by humans can only be balanced through aforestation. Each one of you present here are requested to give each other saplings and plants as a token of love. Small initiatives by us will help us in making our planet greener and cleaner. In the end, I would like to say save trees, save a life.
thank you

Explanation:
Van Mahotsav is an annual tree-planting festival in India, celebrated in the first week of July. This movement was initiated in the year 1950 by India’s Union Minister for Agriculture, Kulapati Dr. K M Munshi. This festival has gained immense national importance and every year, millions of saplings are planted all across India in observation of the Van Mahotsav week.
It is expected that every citizen of India has to plant a sapling in the Van Mahotsav week. It helps spread awareness amongst people about the harm caused by the cutting down of trees. People celebrate Van Mahotsava by planting trees or saplings in homes, offices, schools, colleges, etc. Awareness campaigns are held at various levels. Novel promotions like free circulation of trees are also taken up by various organizations and volunteers.
The planting of trees during the festival serves various purposes like providing alternative fuel, increase production of food resources, helps create shelter-belts around fields to increase productivity, provide food for cattle, offers shade and decorative landscapes, helps conserves soil deterioration, etc. The festival educates the awareness of trees among people and portrays the need of planting and tending of trees, as trees are one of the best ways to prevent global warming and reduce pollution. Van Mahotsava is celebrated as a festival of life.
In India it was started as a crusade to save mother earth. The name Van Mahotsava means “the festival of trees”. It began in July 1947 after a flourishing tree planting drive was undertaken in Delhi, in which national leaders like Dr Rajendra Prasad and Jawaharlal Nehru participated. The festival was simultaneously celebrated in a number of states in India. Since then, thousands of saplings of diverse species are planted with energetic participation of the locals and various agencies like the forest department.
