Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (SP)

Bengaluru, Dec 12: Dairy Classic Ice Creams Pvt Ltd, famous for their brand 'Dairy Day' sponsored ice creams to over 10,000 children who attempted a Guinness World Record by hugging trees at Lalbhag Botanical Garden in Bengaluru on December 8.

The attempt named 'My Tree, My Life', was a mega environmental awareness programme and aimed to beat the previous world record for most people hugging trees, which was set in Kerala’s capital Thiruvananthapuram earlier this year.



For the attempt in Bengaluru, schoolchildren from all over the state were present. Around 13,800 people, including 12,000 children expressed their love for nature by hugging trees for one minute. Another Guinness title 'Largest Tree Hug' was also attempted.

“It is also very important to think about existing trees around us and the war being waged on them by the concrete jungle around. Kids are the best way to send a strong message across to all," said Rajneesh C, service director and president elect of Rotary 3190.

The event which was organized by six clubs that comes under Rotary district 3190, also witnessed participation of volunteers, ordinary citizens and corporate employees.

The claim to the world record has been sent to the requisite authorities and awaits validation.
