Merely uttering the words "Dera Sacha Sauda" rings a bell in one's mind associated with a socio-spiritual organization working towards humanitarian and environmental up-gradation and development. Based on this same legacy, volunteers of Shah Satnam Ji Green 'S' Welfare Force Wing conducted a Tree Plantation drive on the pious Incarnation Anniversary of the Spiritual Master of Dera Sacha Sauda, Revered Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan. This event was inaugurated by His Eminence Saint Ji by planting a sapling Himself. After this ceremony, volunteers from several Indian states as well as a many other countries engaged themselves and participated in this noble cause. Near the Shah Satnam Ji Dham was the inauguration site where Revered Guru Ji reached on a small car called Agrojetter. The Agrojetter is a special vehicle designed by Revered Guru Ji Himself, capable of storing many agricultural instruments. Once Revered Guru Ji reached at the venue, He was greeted by the followers with the holy slogan in chorus, Dhan Dhan Satguru Tera Hi Asra. His Excellency Guru Ji blessed them all by showering blessings upon them. On this special occasion, Most 1,82,94,810 plants and over 80% of them are well nurtured. Taking care of plants is as important as planting new ones." Revered Guru Ji urged farmers to plant productive and fruit bearing saplings. He said, "Relief work for the disaster victims of Uttarakhand is also in progress. An eager demand of fodder is raised by them and shortly they will be provided with it. The recent disaster in Uttarakhand is the result of interruption in the nature's cycle. Mining work done inside the rivers is also responsible to some extent. Today, religious places' existence is for name sake only. Because even in holy places people inhale drugs and commit misdeeds like profligacy which must be avoided. So the Government must pass laws to restrict such acts in religious places." His Holiness congratulated everybody on Independence Day and said, "Every child must be patriotically passionate. It is wrong to make fun of patriotism. We must incorporate patriotic studies in our education system's curriculum so children can immerse themselves zealously towards being patriotic while also being trained like soldiers." A question was asked whether Sirsa should be made as the Ideal City for all, to which His Holiness replied, "Collective efforts are a must for this cause. Dera is always ready to support in every possible way."
