The Assam state government has introduced the Amrit Brikshya Andolan 2024, an initiative focused on boosting the state’s green cover with a large tree planting effort. Taking place from August 1 to August 15, 2024, the goal is to plant 3 crore saplings and to engage various groups throughout the state. A comprehensive guide is available for understanding the program and how to register on the official website, aba.assam.gov.in.

The Amrit Brikshya Andolan aims to increase tree cover beyond the usual forested areas. This initiative seeks to strengthen Assam’s green economy and support sustainable forestry practices by providing raw materials for wood-based industries. The Assam State Forest Department is offering free seedlings to encourage participation from schoolchildren, women’s groups, NGOs, and individual citizens.
