Dear all, It is nice pleasure to see active participation & guidance from Sh. Umesh Kumar Tiwari ji.
This is what Pankaj ji said about him: "Umesh Tiwari is a very good taxonomist who just submitted his PhD on Berberis of western Himalaya under the supervision of my supervisor, Prof G.S.Rawat. He is also very good at Fabaceae members. He had been associated with wildlife since long time, firstly as a part of Tiger Monitoring Project followed by Studies on Medicinal Plants in Uttarakhand district. He is a very good hiker and traveller and also an angry young man at moments !!!! :) Nice to see him join." I am sure lot of our members must be knowing more about him.
