एतद् द्वारा यह निर्देशित किया जाता है कि आवेदक 05 पौधों का (फल देने वाले पेड़ अथवा नीम/पीपल) रोपण करेगा तथा उसे अपने आस पडोस में पेड़ों की सुरक्षा के लिए बाड़ लगाने की व्यवस्था करनी होगी ताकि पौधे सुरक्षित रह सके। आवेदक का यह कर्तव्य है कि न केवल पौधों को लगाया जाऐ, बल्कि उन्हें पोषण भी दिया जाए। ''वृक्षारोपण के साथ, वृक्षापोषण भी आवश्यक है।" आवेदक विशेषतः 3-4 फीट ऊॅंचे पौधे/पेड़ों को 3-5 फीट के गड्ढे करके लगायेगा ताकि वे शीघ्र ही पूर्ण विकसित हो सकें। और यथासंभव हो तो तपोवन नर्सरी, ग्वालियर (वन विभाग, मध्यप्रेदश शासन) से प्राप्त कर पौधरोपण करें। अनुपालन सुनिश्चित करने के लिए, आवेदक को रिहा किये जाने की दिनांक से 30 दिनों के भीतर संबंधित विचारण न्यायालय के समक्ष वृक्षों/पौधों के रोपण के सभी फोटो प्रस्तुत करना होगें। तत्पश्चात्, विचारण के समापन तक हर तीन महीने में आवेदक के द्वारा विचारण न्यायालय के समक्ष प्रगति रिपोर्ट प्रस्तुत की जाएगी।

10.वृक्षों की प्रगति पर निगरानी रखना विचारण न्यायालय का कर्तव्य है क्योंकि पर्यावरण क्षरण के कारण मानव अस्तित्व दांव पर है और न्यायालय अनुपालन के बारे में आवेदक द्वारा दिखाई गई किसी भी लापरवाही को नजर अंदाज नही कर सकता है। इसलिए आवेदक को पेड़ों की प्रगति और आवेदक द्वारा अनुपालन के संबंध में एक रिपोर्ट प्रस्तुत करने के लिए निर्देशित किया जाता है एवं आवदेक द्वारा किये गये अनुपालन की एक संक्षप्ति रिपेार्ट इस न्यायालय के समक्ष प्रत्येक तीन माह में (अगले छः महीनों के लिए) रखी जायेगी जिसे कि ''निर्देश " शीर्ष के अंतर्गत रखा जाएगा।

11.वृक्षारोपण में या पेड़ों की देखभाल में आवेदक की ओर से की गई कोई भी चूक आवेदक को जमानत का लाभ लेने से वंचित कर सकती है।

12.आवेदक को अपनी पसंद के स्थान पर इन पौधों/पेडों को रोपने की स्वतंत्रता होगी, यदि वह इन रोपे गये पेडों की ट्री गार्ड या बाड़ लगाकर रक्षा करना चाहता है, अन्यथा आवेदक को वृक्षों के रोपण के लिए तथा उनके सुरक्षा उपायों के लिए आवश्यक खर्चे वहन करना होगें।

13.इस न्यायालय द्वारा यह निर्देश एक परीक्षण प्रकरण के तौर पर दिए गए हैं ताकि हिंसा और बुराई के विचार का प्रतिकार, सृजन एवं प्रकृति के साथ एकाकार होने के माध्यम से सामंाजस्य स्थापित किया जा सके। वर्तमान में मानव अस्तित्व के आवश्यक अंग के रूप में दया, सेवा, प्रेम एवं करूंणा की प्रकृति को विकसित करने की आवश्यकता है क्योंकि यह मानव जीवन की मूलभूत प्रवृतियां हैं और मानव अस्तित्व को बनाए रखने के लिए इनका पुनर्जीवित होना आवश्यक है।

14.''यह प्रयास केवल एक वृक्ष के रोपण का प्रश्न न होकर बल्कि एक विचार के अंकुरण का है।"
