On World Environment Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam‘ campaign, an initiative aimed at promoting environmental conservation through tree planting. The campaign, which translates to “A Tree in the Name of Mother,” encourages people to plant a tree in honor of their mothers, symbolizing the nurturing role that both mothers and trees play in our lives.
During the launch, PM Modi highlighted the importance of trees in combating climate change, preserving biodiversity, and improving air quality. He emphasized that trees not only provide oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide but also offer shelter and food to numerous species, thereby maintaining ecological balance.

The ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’ campaign seeks to inspire individuals, communities, and organizations across India to participate in large-scale tree planting activities. By dedicating a tree to one’s mother, participants not only pay tribute to their mothers but also contribute to a greener and healthier planet.
To participate in the campaign, individuals can plant a tree in their backyard, community parks, schools, or any other suitable location. They are encouraged to take care of the tree, ensuring it grows and thrives. The campaign also promotes the idea of gifting a tree sapling to loved ones, spreading the message of environmental responsibility.
PM Modi urged citizens to share their tree-planting stories and photos on social media using the hashtag #EkPedMaaKeNaam, creating a ripple effect and encouraging more people to join the movement. He stressed the collective effort required to address environmental challenges and how individual actions can make a significant impact.
