Once a barren patch of land. Today, a forest that protects daughters.
In Piplantri, a small village in Rajasthan’s Rajsamand district, grief quietly grew into one of India’s most beautiful social revolutions.
After losing his young daughter, village sarpanch Shyam Sundar Paliwal made a promise that would change everything.
For every girl child born in the village, 111 trees would be planted in her honour. What began as a single tribute slowly turned into an entire ecosystem of hope.
Today, Piplantri is home to over 3 lakh trees including mango, sheesham, banyan and peepal. Land that was once dry and barren is now lovingly called ‘Nandan Van’ or the forest of happiness.
The green cover has helped revive groundwater, bring back birds, and give the village a new identity.
But this movement goes beyond environment. It gently challenged mindsets around female foeticide, turning the birth of a girl into a moment of pride, celebration and community responsibility.
For his impact on society and sustainability, Shyam Sundar Paliwal was honoured with the Padma Shri in 2021.

@pbhushan1 The court has closed the case in 1999 as having no materials for such allegations. Despite such a judicial order which has attained finality,you have the audacity to share a video of an unknown person who doesn’t even identify herself. You keep proving your lack of credibility.
The reason why Justice GR Swaminathan of the #MadrasHighCourt is the darling of the Madurai Bar is his impressive case disposal statistics. He has disposed of 73,505 main cases in the last eight years & does not hesitate to begin court at 9 am & continue till late evenings.
