Medicinal plants are more valuable, useful: Sanjita Dogra


Jammu, June 26 (Scoop News)- Stressing upon the people to contribute in planting more and more trees in the monsoon season, Jammu and Kashmir, BJP Mahila Morcha President, Sanjita Dogra, said that medicinal plants are more useful as they serve many purposes.
She was speaking on the occasion of the launching of plantation drive in Jumbo Lochan Park, near Ustad Mohalla, Jammu, along with BJP Jammu West District President Munish Khajuria and Mahila Morcha team.
It was for the first time that Sanjita Dogra involved small girls called 'Kanjaks' to set in motion fifteen days Plantation Pakhwada.
Sanjita Dogra said that a sapling planted during monsoon months grows well and becomes a tree, which serves in many ways. It gives shelter and food to birds, shadow to people to escape scorching heat, convert carbondioxide into oxygen etc. If the plants are from medicinal class, they prove to be more useful as their leaves, roots, fruits etc can be used to cure many health ailments as well. The saplings planted today were of neem, amla, giloy etc, which are considered to be best medicines under Ayurvedic System. She said that from state to booth level, across Jammu and Kashmir, thousands of saplings will be planted in fifteen days.
The slogan of Clean Jammu Green Jammu will provide a pollution free, health friendly atmosphere to the people with the plantation and growth of saplings into plants, she said.
The Mahila Morcha activists took pledge to continue with the plantation drive in their respective areas in the coming days and also involve the local people for the same. She also announced that for every sapling, one activist of the Morcha will be given responsibility as care taker/ paalak to take care for three years so that it grows well.
Munish Khajuria appreciated the efforts put in by launching the plantation drive and expressed hope that it will also motivate general public to do such work for the benefit of the mankind.
