The initiative not only emphasised the significance of tree plantation, but also highlighted the role of cycling as an eco-friendly mode of transportation that contributed to environmental sustainability.

“The importance of tree plantation cannot be overstated. Using cycling as a medium to promote eco-friendly practices is a great initiative. The main aim of this plantation drive was to ensure the regular supervision of the planted saplings for a better success rate,” said Shimla Cycling Association president Mohit Sood. “Events like these generate a sense of responsibility among the younger generations, encouraging them to connect with the environment and preserve our ecology.”
