Role of Rajasthan in environment conservation: 

Environment plays an important role not in human’s life but also for lives of Plants, animals, birds also. The following are the main examples of environmental conservation in Rajasthan

1. Sacrifice of Amrita Devi in Khejarligram District of Jodhpur.

2. Activities of Kiran Nidhi Institution of Gram Piplalantri District of Rajsamand.

Khejarli Balidan: 

That time Maharaja of Jodhpur needed wood for states work, for this king’s soldiers selected Khejarli Gram near Jodhpur. The soldiers started hammering the trees of Khejarli Gram forest. When this information reached to Mrs. Amrita Devi and other villagers, they ran to save trees. Amrita devi requested to king’s soldiers.

“Don’t cut gram trees, cutting green trees is wrong”.

Soldiers didn’t agreed, then Amrita Devi, her daughters and villagers huged the trees and said- 

“Sar Sathe Runkh Rahe, To bhi Sasto Jaan” . 

OR

It is a cheap deal if tree is saved and head is cut. To save trees 363 villagers including Amrita Devi and her daughter martyred. Every year in their remembrance a fair is celebrated in village Khejarli on Bhadrapad Sudi Dashmi.

Rajsamand Jila Gram Piplantri:

Kiran Nidhi institution of Gram Piplantri run a movement, where birth of a girl child is celebrated and on this day villagers plant 1100 trees. On the day of Raksha Bandhan villagers tie a thread and take pledge to conserve these trees. This method is unique and successful example for environment conservation.
