New Delhi, 4th Nov: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday shared an article by Union Minister Bhupender Yadav, emphasizing how India’s Mission LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment) is bringing back traditional conservation wisdom rooted in the country’s heritage.
The article, posted by the Environment Minister on X, highlights India’s indigenous water conservation systems — from Tamil Nadu’s eri tanks to Rajasthan’s johads — and how they represent sustainable practices long before global climate discussions began.
Sharing the post, the Prime Minister wrote, “In this must-read article, Union Minister Shri @byadavbjp writes that India’s Mission LiFE revives time-honoured conservation practices, from Tamil Nadu’s eri tank systems to Rajasthan’s johads, reframing them as conscious acts of planetary service. He highlights India’s message that real sustainability begins not with negotiations but with nurturing.”
Mission LiFE, launched by Prime Minister Modi in 2022, encourages individuals and communities to adopt environmentally responsible lifestyles. The initiative seeks to position India as a leader in promoting sustainable living through conscious choices and collective responsibility toward the planet.
