In a new update shared on Buckingham Palace’s official Instagram account, it was revealed that the monarch welcomed Prime Minister Modi to Sandringham House, where he was presented with a meaningful gift — a tree to be planted later this autumn as part of Modi’s “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam” campaign.
This initiative, which translates to “A Tree in the Name of Mother,” encourages people around the world to honour their mothers by planting a tree — blending love for family with care for the planet.
Sharing a photo of the two leaders together, the Palace captioned the post:
“This afternoon, The King received the Prime Minister of the Republic of India, @NarendraModi, at Sandringham House.”
“During their time together, His Majesty was given a tree to be planted this Autumn, inspired by the environmental initiative launched by the Prime Minister, ‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’, which encourages people to plant a tree in tribute to their mothers.”
The gesture resonated deeply with royal fans, who flooded the comments with praise for both leaders and the meaning behind the gift.
“Aw, what a generous, sweet gift! I'm sure the King will be delighted to plant a tree in his mother's memory,” one user wrote.
Another added, “Wow, that’s so touching! A powerful way to honour moms and protect nature together.”
King Charles has long been a passionate advocate for the environment, making this symbolic gesture all the more significant. The tree will stand not only as a tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II but also as a symbol of cross-cultural goodwill and shared environmental values.
