Women tie rakhis to trees in UP's Shahjahanpur, offer fertilisers as sweets

Quick Summary:

In a unique effort to spread awareness about the need for environment preservation, women in Uttar Pradesh's Shahjahanpur have been tying rakhis to trees and offering them fertilizers instead of sweets.

The idea behind this initiative was to help people connect with the environment so that they are inspired to conserve it, committee president Neetu Gupta told PTI on Sunday.

Raksha Bandhan symbolises the sacred feeling of a brother and a sister taking care of each other.
