I can only salute the expertise and knowledge he has gained over the years, we can really depend on him...this was expected that if Dr. Pankaj has volunteered to co-ordinate the episode, this will be a grand show..I wish him a great luck in all his future endeavours and everyone here will be very happy to see him "World Authority on Orchids-The Real Orchidopedia".. Thanks Pankaj Ji for your dedication..
