I really admire the dedication and energy Gargi ji shows in maintaining the website, resurfacing mails till a satisfactory identification is achieved, sending mails to experts outside the Group to achieve identification and ensuring that nomenclature of our taxa is up-to-date. Balkar ji, who impressed one and all with his uploads from VOF, providing multiple photographs well depicted for easier identification. No doubt he was the Hero of the VOF month. Prashant ji, Dinesh ji and Nidhan ji, the leading uploaders during the VOF month, and impressing one and all with their knowledge of the Flora. Ushadi who always keeps us on our toes by her crisp comments and queries and providing useful information. Surajit ji, who does a real research before his uploads and follows up with thorough investigation till he is sure about the uploaded plants. Satish ji, who always has words of appreciation, encouragement and ever ready to provide additional useful information. Umesh ji, who has been a real asset for the group helping with numerous identifications especially for the plants from VOF trip. Congratulations to all. Please continue the good job. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
