Childhood nostalgia and a love for nature come together in this episode about a woman who managed to arrest the rapid depletion of flora and fauna on a hill in Mussoorie.
What does reforesting a barren tract of land entail? A popular guess would be that it involves months, maybe years, of aggressive restoration practices, which allow flora and fauna to flourish. But, nature is remarkably resilient and sometimes, all it takes is avoiding human intervention, and simply letting nature take its course. This is the story of Sejal Worah, a woman who almost singlehandedly restored a degraded hill located inside a forest in Mussoorie.
