Pictures of Narayanappa’s bus surprised netizens after ANI posted them on May 5. The tweet says that he has been doing this for the past 3-4 years to spread awareness about keeping the environment green.

In the pictures, we can see that his mobile garden consists of several potted plants. They are placed on the dashboard and on a shelf behind his seat. We can also see creepers growing inside the bus.

Undoubtedly, the images have left many impressed. Netizens can’t stop praising this unusual effort.

Though most of the users have praised the driver, a few have some concerns.

A few days back, an auto driver in Kolkata became the talk of the town after he did something similar. Identified as Bijay Pal, the driver planted a garden on top of his auto. Also, he painted a sign on his vehicle that read “Save trees save lives”.

What do you think about this bus driver’s effort?
