The Walnut Tree – A Living Witness to a Vision

The Walnut Tree – A Living Witness to a Vision

In 1986, amidst the serene hills of Himachal Pradesh, Sant Baba Iqbal Singh Ji—a retired Director of Agriculture—laid the cornerstone of an educational revolution. It was beneath the ancient boughs of a walnut tree, opposite the sacred Arambhic Gurdwara (Kacha Kotha) in Baru Sahib, that he first gathered five young students. This venerable tree, the oldest sentinel of the valley, stands as a silent witness to the birth of a transformative journey. From its shade, Baba Ji envisioned a future where education and nature would intertwine, and it was here—where he often sat in quiet contemplation—that the foundation of Baru Sahib was sown. Today, the branches of that vision stretch majestically across five northern states, touching the lives of 70,000 children through 130 Akal Academies.

A Legacy Woven with Wisdom and Love

Sant Baba Iqbal Singh Ji, a visionary whose life was woven with the wisdom of agriculture, saw young minds as tender shoots—each yearning for nurture, light, and fertile ground to flourish. With a heart attuned to the rhythms of the earth, he forged a philosophy that fused education with nature’s embrace, a sacred mission born from his boundless love for humanity. From that first spark, the Akal Academies rose, their reach now spanning Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Himachal Pradesh. Till now, in the past 10 years, his steadfast devotion has blossomed into 5 lakh plants taking root across these campuses—verdant sanctuaries that stand as living tributes to his dream of a greener, wiser world.

To exalt Sant Baba Iqbal Singh Ji’s timeless vision, we unveil a bold new endeavor:

  • Planting 78,250 saplings across all Akal Academies.
