-- With regards, J. M. Garg ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Pankaj Kumar <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 18 Jun, 2021, 7:05 am Subject: Re: [itpmods:15649] Fwd: eFloraofIndia completing 14 years of service- Salute to Sh. Pankaj Kumar To: itpmods <[email protected]>
Respected Sir and dear friends Thanks a lot for the wonderful message. I would say I am just a small potato and nothing would have been possible without the sincere efforts of Garg sir and many other stalwarts like Gurcharan sir and Dinesh sir. I am not naming them all because there is a long list. There is still a long way to go. I am sorry that I have been less active due to lot of things including work, health issues and frustrations in life. But I know, I need to keep walking and whenever I can, I must contribute. My mentor Prof. G.S.Rawat once told me that having knowledge is a good thing but the bigger achievement is to pass on my knowledge to others. This is just a small effort, of course I do make mistakes and when I check them back, I do try to correct them, otherwise they keep haunting me.
