Salumarada Thimmakka Amongst Most Inspirational Women This Year

Padma Shri Salumarada Thimmakka – renowned environmentalist from Karnataka is now amongst the most inspiration women in India and world, for this Womens Day. She rightly deserves to be.

For the uninitiated, Thimmakka   planted and nurtured nearly 400 banyan tress across a four kilometer stretch in Karnataka. She also holds the distinction of having created forests by planting at least 9000 other variety of trees thereby contributing immensely to afforestation and the environment.

She has received various honours from across the world for her work. She rightly deserves many more recognitions. Prime Minister Modi has special affection towards Thimmakka. She was bestowed the Padma Shri in 2019 by President Kovind at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi. Hence, she is the epitome of dedication and devotion towards a cause.

You could idiolize her, from at least now. Of late, Thimmakka has been attending various afforestation programs across Karnataka and educating people on the importance of creating newer green covers.
