Wow thats amazing. Garg sir, to tell you the truth, Flora of Delhi was written with around ~600 plants, ranchi with ~1200 plants, bhagalpur with ~800 plants, uttarakhand with around 5000 plants. Some one can do his phd with this information :)). Its really a great great achievement. I have no words. Regards Pankaj
