Good to see the CM participating. Our ancient texts have always emphasized living in harmony with nature. Pujya Bhaishri's katha is legendary. Hope the message reaches every household.

Respectfully, while the intent is noble, I hope this leads to concrete policy action. Gandhinagar and other cities need stricter enforcement against pollution and better waste management systems. Spiritual events must translate into tangible change.

As someone new to India, I find this fusion of faith and environmentalism fascinating. Holding it without a mandap, just among the trees, sends a powerful message. Well done, Gandhinagar!

Bhagwat Katha in a grove of trees is the perfect setting. Our rishis did their tapasya in nature. This is a return to those roots. More power to Nature First Foundation and all the volunteers! 👏

Wonderful news! When leaders participate in such events, it sets an example for the public. Protecting Prakriti is our dharma. Hope they streamed it online for those who couldn't attend.
