In Piplantri village, Rajasthan, a unique tradition celebrates the birth of every girl by planting 111 trees.
Started in 2006 by former village leader Shyam Sundar Paliwal in memory of his daughter, the initiative not only promotes gender equality but also environmental sustainability.
Parents sign a pledge to support their daughter's education and not marry her off before the legal age.
Over the years, this has transformed the village into a lush, eco-friendly community and changed societal attitudes toward daughters—recognizing them as blessings, not burdens.
