questions 1,2&3.
At the farthest
corner of Bangladesh there is a village called Tarapur. In this village there
lives a man names Kartik Pramanik. He is a hairdresser by profession, but
nature lover at heart. His passion is to plant saplings, which grow into
gigantic trees. He started planting trees when he was only 10 years old. He remembers
what his father once told him, ‘My son, you can earn the blessings of god by
planting trees.’ He has never forgotten what his father told him. At present he
is 63 years old. He has planted hundreds of trees in his village. Many of the
trees are now
35-40 years
old.
Once there were
hardly any trees in the village. Kartik used to go to different houses for his
job. At times he would get tired in the scorching sun, but there were no trees
under which he could sit and rest for a while. Thinking how people suffer in
the heat, kartik began his tree planting mission.
Kartik would
wake up early in the morning, take one or two labourers with him and set out
ton plant trees. He would walk long distances to plant trees, carrying with him
some dry foods and water. He would pay all the expenses from own pocket. Kartik
has planted trees beside the roads, in and around the bazaar, schools and
colleges, open fields and many other places.
At times it so
happened that kartik would go to water his plants at 10 or 11pm. People asked
him, ‘Kartik, are you mad? What are you doing so late at night?’ Kartik would
smile and say, ‘what to do, sir, I have to work hard the whole day to earn
money for my family. I don’t get time during the day. But my trees would die if
I don’t water them. So I come late at night to look after them.’
A man who can
hardly sign his name, is leaving his signature all around in nature.
