The remarkable work of 'Jungle Amma' Tulsi Gowda #OMGIndia S08E09 Story 3

Late Tulsi Gowda, an octogenarian environmentalist from Honnali village in Karnataka, was renowned for her extraordinary connection with plants, able to assess their health with a mere touch. Over 50 years, she had planted more than 30,000 saplings, earning the title "Encyclopedia of Forest" for her deep knowledge of tree species, despite lacking formal education in botany. Initially working in the Karnataka Forestry Department's nurseries, she retired at 70 but continued to be a sought-after advisor by both the department and local villagers. Her lifelong dedication to forestry was recognized in 2020 when she received the prestigious Padma Shri award from the Government of India, acknowledging her significant contributions to environmental conservation.
