Joining hands with the Government of Rajasthan in its efforts to provide medicinal plants to households, IIL Foundation, the CSR arm of leading agrochemical company Insecticides (India) Ltd. has come forward to partner with them and support with 70,000 planters to the ambitious and innovative step by Rajasthan’s ‘GharGharAushadhi’ scheme to spread the awareness for the immunity in these Covid Times.
The planters have been handed over to the district authorities of Alwar, as the scheme has been already flagged off by the Chief Minister of Rajasthan in the last week of May.
This Scheme Provides 8 Medicinal Plants at No Cost
The ‘GharGharAushadhi’ scheme will provide eight medicinal plants such as Tulsi, Giloy, Kalmegh and Ashwagandha at no cost three times in five years to all 1.26 crore families of Rajasthan.1 The IIL Foundation will provide planters so that the saplings are safely delivered to the beneficiaries and thrive.
