Great initiative by PM Modi! Planting trees in mother's name is such an emotional connect for Indians. My whole housing society participated today. Hope this becomes a lasting movement, not just a one-day event 🌱

While I appreciate the sentiment, I wish more focus was given to maintaining existing trees in cities. So many old trees are cut for metro projects and roads. Plantation is good but preservation is equally important.

Kangana ji is right - our environment is our true legacy. In my village in Bihar, we've started a tradition where every newborn's family plants 5 trees. This campaign gives national recognition to such efforts. Jai Hind!

Emotional appeal works well in India. Connecting environment with 'maa' is brilliant strategy. My office team planted 25 trees today in memory of our mothers. Feeling proud to contribute to this movement!
