Also, he talked about the ‘Save Soil’ movement which was initiated by Sadguru, and how he took a journey of 30,000 km across 24 nations on a lone motorcycle to create awareness of the issue.

Prof. G. S. Dasog empowered the students about the importance of saving soil from further degradation. Stating that the country's soil resource was declining rapidly, he said that the United Nations said that the soil must have at least three percent organic matter. However, the soil in the country has only 0.5 percent organic matter. “This not only affects agriculture production but also depletes the nutrients in the food we eat, and cause impacts human health”, he added and expressed concern over the possible risk of looming food security threat in the country.
