Green India Challenge launches seed Ganeshas
As a symbol of tradition and environmental conservation, former Rajya Sabha MP and Green India Challenge (GIC) founder Joginapally Santosh Kumar, along with Telugu actor-producer Nara Rohith, unveiled eco-friendly seed Ganesha idols. Mr. Santosh Kumar presented the idols to devotees and staff at the Swarnagiri temple. With Ganesh Chaturthi around the corner, the aim of the initiative is to distribute 5,000 seed Ganesha idols free of charge. Crafted from natural clay, cocopeat, and coco powder, each idol is embedded with seeds of native trees like neem and tamarind. After the rituals, the idols can be immersed in soil, allowing the seeds to sprout into saplings that can later be transplanted into homes, parks, and public spaces, creating lasting green legacies. 'In today's era of pollution and ecological stress, planting and nurturing trees is not a choice but a necessity. The seed Ganesha initiative beautifully blends spirituality with sustainability,' he said in a statement. Over the years, the GIC has distributed 1.5 lakh seed Ganesha idols annually, and this year, it aims to reach 5 lakh idols, spreading the message of sustainability far and wide.
