Tree plantation is part of the voluntary that SIAM carries out throughout the community. SIAM believed that by participating in tree plantation will add to maintaining the environment and keeping it clean. Due to its year to year voluntary schemes; SIAM has made it obligatory for the pharmacy students as part of their extra-curriculum activities who by their efforts and dedication they will cultivate the sense of social responsibility.
During the course of these voluntary schemes, students travel to remote areas and rural districts on University’s luxurious buses to contribute in cultivating plants and trees for forestry and plantation purposes. This duty normally carries out every year and the main targets are freshmen and sometimes sophomore nursing students.
