Request to save Salfi tree of Bastar which is dying due to unknown disease

Dr Mahesh Poyam from Bastar in Chhattisarh is drawing our attention towards the Salfi tree which is a big part of Bastar culture. He says a salfi tree is also major part of economy of Bastar tribals but from last few years due to some unknown disease many Salfi trees are dying. State should take serious look at this otherwise a day will come when Salfi will be a matter of past. For more Mahesh Ji can be reached at 09406347866
