Dear Mr Garg,

Greetings from Poison Control Centre, AIMS, Cochin!

I am contacting you to request a favour. I am writing an article on Poisonous Indian Plants for the lay public (in light of the tragic incident of a young woman who died due to accidental ingestion of Nerium Oleander flower/leaf a few days ago here in Kerala). I am a physician working as Professor & Head of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, and Chief of Poison Control Centre, Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Cochin, Kerala. The article is meant to raise awareness among the general public about the toxic hazards of common garden plants. I would be thankful if you could provide some pictures of your own for the article. The following plants are featured in the article. Selected images will be credited to you explicitly.

Nerium Oleander

Yellow Oleander

Cerbera Odollam

Castor

Abrus (Rosary Pea)

Datura

Neem

Eucalyptus

Dumbcane

Philodendron

Any contributions would be gratefully accepted. I do hope you will not charge any fee as the article is not part of a commercial initiative, but is intended in the interests of public health.

Best regards,

Dr VV Pillay MD, DCL

Dear Pillay ji

Somehow got posted without Ji getting typed at the end of the name.

It should read "Dear Pillay Ji'

Request Garg Ji to correct the typo.

Regards

Taffazull

Dear Garg/ Taffazull,

Thank you for the images of Oleander. Do let me know how they should be credited if they are selected for publication.

I would also appreciate images of the other plants listed in my earlier mail.
