What’s happening to Rajasthan’s khejri tree and sangri?
The state tree and lifeline of the desert — is vanishing. From feeding generations with sangri pods to sustaining livestock and offering shade in the arid Thar, the khejri has been central to life, culture and livelihoods in Rajasthan. The Bishnoi community has fought for centuries to protect it even sacrificing their lives in the 18th century. But today, climate change, pest attacks, and large-scale solar parks threaten its very survival. Through the voices of farmers, researchers, and the Bishnoi community, we see how this tree is not just wood, but history, livelihood, and resilience.
