Life Insurance Corporation of India completed 65 years of its establishment on September 1, 2021, with the help of Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalaya, tree plantation was done in the museum premises. On this occasion 75 saplings of Karanj, Sapatparni, Teak, Paras Peepal, Kadam and Neem were planted. All the officers/employees of Life Insurance Corporation of India and Museum enthusiastically participated in this plantation program.
On this occasion Shri Prakash Chand, Regional Manager (Central Zone) said that trees and plants are really essential for the all round development of an individual. A place where there are no trees, naturally appears sad, whereas a place surrounded by a good number of trees automatically becomes alive and livable. Trees not only keep us physically healthy but also help in the development of our mind.
Director Praveen Kumar Mishra told that trees have the power to rejuvenate immediately. Spending time under the tree on the green grass can reduce your stress to a great extent. The sound of birds chirping on tree branches, the rustle of leaves when the wind passes by, and the smell of leaves and flowers on trees – all have a calming effect on our senses and stress. People who live closer to trees and nature are less prone to diseases.
On this occasion, SN Satpathy, Regional Manager (Estate and Office Services), Gulshan Kumar Kalra, Chief Engineer (Central Zone), Sumit Kumar Dasgupta, Regional Manager (Corporate Communication) also planted saplings.
