Patna was one of Indias most polluted cities. In 1988, a group of young volunteers decided to do
something about it. They wanted to improve the quality of life for everybody, so they cleaned up the
city and planted hundreds of trees.
The volunteers formed a group and they called it Tarumitra (Friends of Trees). Four secondary-
school students organised a bicycle ride in the north of the country to tell people about our planets
ecological crisis. The boys rode from Patna to New Delhi a distance of more than 1,045 kilometres.
They went from place to place talking to people about protecting and planting trees.
Tarumitra is doing many other things to protect the environment. One of its best achievements is a 10-
acre nature reserve in the centre of Patna. They planted hundreds of different types of trees there.
Tarumitra is also trying to change the way people in India celebrate the Holi Festival. Every spring,
people celebrate this festival by lighting big fires with branches from trees. In Patna, they burn rubbish
instead of trees and now in other areas, too. If Tarumitras success continues, people all over India will
do the same.
Tarumitra started more than 25 years ago and today it has got members in over 1,000 schools and
colleges all over India. These hard-working young people wont stop fighting to protect their
environment. If these volunteers didnt do such good work, Patna wouldnt be a model for other cities
in India.
