🌍

Contexto cultural

Planting a fruit tree is considered a 'Punya' (merit). It is common for grandparents to plant trees for their grandchildren to enjoy the fruits. The 'Brikkhoropon' ceremony is a major cultural event where a sapling is carried in a palanquin and planted with Vedic chants and songs. Due to climate change, 'গাছ লাগানো' is a national priority. Every year, the Prime Minister inaugurates a national tree plantation campaign. Trees like the Banyan (Bot) and Peepal (Ashwathwa) are often planted in village centers to provide a 'Baithak-khana' (meeting place) under their shade.
