[Geeta Malhotra]

Dear Kanchan

Congratulations! The decision is remarkable!! I know, the editorial team
will take care of  imparting knowledge to the deprived communities to fill
in the knowledge gap on technology, costs, how to apply for CR and all, to
maximise the number of CRs in India!!

Thanks Kanchan for sharing such a good news and look forward to getting the
first issue soon.
