Jharkhand Revives Asia's Largest Lac Plantation

A very big lac plantation in Jharkhand, which is the largest in Asia, is being brought back to life by the government.

This plantation has lots of special trees and was not working for a while because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Now, the government wants to fix it up, make it safe, and start making lac again.

Lac is a special material made by tiny insects that live on these trees.

It is used to make things like bangles, cosmetics, and wax.

The government thinks this will help the local people find jobs and make money for the state.

They are also planning to build a fence around it to keep it safe from thieves.
