Summary:
more-inA group of youths have set an example for others to emulate by planting as many as 2,000 palm seeds on the bunds of the Seshanchavadi lake near Vazhappadi recently. These youths camped in the village and planted the palm nuts on the Seshanchavadi tank bund. Due to various reasons, the present day younger generation too is not evincing interest in raising the palm trees in the villages. Palm trees are weather-resistant and are useful to the common people in many ways. The mass planting campaign was to increase the population of the palm trees and also to create awareness among the common public on the importance of these trees..
