We request your intiative in sending your own letter to the various authorities whose email address I am sending with a draft letter to guide you. Perhaps already a million trees have been cut but with our efforts many millions can be saved. I have appealed to the INTACH Chairman for INTACH's central office contribution in the campaign as well as activating awareness of the issue in our 140 chapters across India. I would be thanful for your acknowledgement and action with reference to this letter.
