Baripada – Tha :- 17/09/2025 Rikh Children below 10 years of age usually go to their parents to buy toys, chocolates, new shirt paint etc. But an exception has been found in the case of Mahabir Das, a class 3 student of Punchandrapur Government Primary High School in Ward No. 15 under Baripada Municipality. Seeing the tree planting program by the students, asked his mother Rukmini to buy a tree. Father Manoj Kumar Das was surprised to hear his son’s words. Finally, he bought a Sapeta sapling from the market and gave it to the school. All the teachers/students were also surprised to hear the student’s words. Mahabir planted the sapling with his mother. The Kuni child, who has set an example for others, will be specially awarded on the upcoming Children’s Day and this year’s anniversary celebrations, said Principal Soumya Das.
