He has fulfilled all the commitments towards his nation and never shied away from going out of his comfort zone to do something worthwhile. Being an important part of Greenathon was one such dynamic step, exhibiting his valiance and effervescence with which he lives his life.

Keeping up to his promise, he made a year ago to Mr. Dhaval Patel at a youth conference in Panchgani, Major D P Singh paid a visit in Vidyanagar, Anand and devoted a day to nature and cleaner India.

Dr. Dhaval Patel (the same name, coincidentally) , the collector and DM of the city was present at the event for flag off of the Greenathon. Major met him post noon and discussed a few of his concerns regarding the village. The collector agreed to pull the administration to do the needful. Meanwhile, Mr. Dhaval Patel decided to clean the area with the help of his volunteers.

During the run, Major was mesmerized by the enthusiasm exhibited by an 8 th standard girl, Jhanavi, who was running her first 10km. Appreciating her for her efforts, he said I wish if each girl shows such grit, perseverance, determined and humble attitude no one can stop them to conquer the world.

The joint efforts of Dr. Dhaval Patel, Mr. Dhaval Patel and Major Devender Pal Singh did not go waste and the trio DP effect turned out to be successful.
