“So, now anybody coming to my office is getting this. This card when planted grows into a bright basil plant,” Kaswan wrote on Twitter describing it as “as a parting gift”.
He also explained that the card wasn’t made with the idea of sharing his contact details but to encourage people to “plant using this card”.

*Basil. Sorry for typo.
Holy basil also called as Tulsi. With many Benifits. — Parveen Kaswan, IFS (@ParveenKaswan) September 1, 2020
He got several response from his followers to which he replied very kindly:
Great idea! However there is a catch. The card will mostly get into a card holder and may never get planted. When we value the person, we also value his/her visiting card. The card should ideally have a tear off section containing the seeds. — ???? उत्तिष्ठ भारत ।। Rising Bharat ???? (@ghoshpp1) September 1, 2020
No. This has no details on it. I don’t share contact number also. That was done for this purpose only. It’s just for the person as a parting gift. And telling them that you need to plant this card at your home. The work is done. — Parveen Kaswan, IFS (@ParveenKaswan) September 1, 2020
Numerous people came up with several ideas to make the Earth a better place, many have adopted ideas that are being shared and feel its importance of carrying out their duties towards this environment
