Divisional Forest Officer Shri Shashi Kumar received this certificate on behalf of the Forest Division.

On this occasion, Chief Minister Shri Vishnudev Sai congratulated the Jashpur Forest Division, the Forest Department, and all the citizens associated with the campaign, stating that environmental protection is not just a government responsibility, but a collective responsibility of society. He said that the "Banabo Beej Gola, Jashpur Ke Jungle La Badhabo" campaign being run in Jashpur has emerged as an excellent example of public participation and nature conservation.
