When The “Mother Of Trees” Blessed President Ram Nath Kovind
Ms Thimmakka, who has earned the nickname of ‘Vriksha Mathe (mother of trees)’ for planting 8,000 trees– including over 400 banyan trees– was honoured along with other personalities at Rashtrapati Bhavan on Saturday.
As President Kovind asked her to face the camera, she touched his forehead to bless him.
