? On July 31th, 2016, Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji emphasized the importance of trees and ‘Mann ki Baat’ on a program broadcast on the government’s All India Radio. He said planting trees in India has not only become a new source of income for India’s citizens, but it can save India from deforestation and timber importation costs. If the Indian people start to plant more saplings, they can be utilized for the construction of homes and furniture in the future. Furthermore, these saplings can be cut and sold to other countries with the permission of the government when they reach maturity. He also said that “I have repeatedly told my farmer that instead of wasting our land in building fences around our fields, why don’t we start planting timber trees there.”
