There is an interesting piece of information in the following report. I always

make Bihu Dhol and there is a shortage of Modaar wood.
The good news is they are planting new Modaar trees to get the wood for Dhols
Modaar lumber is considered 'elaagi kaath' or aawkathi (of little

considered desirable, because it produces much smoke when burning,
possibly due to trapped
Where is the report?
