After the establishment of Epiricania melanoleuca in different sugar factory areas of Gujarat State ,the authorities of certain Sugar factories asked me a question that what action you are taking against them who are resorting the Aerial spraying in sugarcane crop against Sugarcane Pyrilla in their areas inspite of your advice not to conduct aerial spraying in Sugarcane crop against Sugarcane Pyrilla as the parasitic Epircania melanoleuca will take care of Sucarcane Pyrilla .I answered them that we don't have judicial powers to take any legal action against them .we are advisory body we can only give them advice and it It is up to them in what way they can take the benefit of our advice and technology. In this connection I also wrote a letter to the Chief Secretary Gujarat to issue necessary instructions to the respective authorities and then the Instructions were issued to them for follow up the action. By this way the aerial spraying against Sugarcane Pyrilla was stopped in Gujarat state and since then crores of rupees of Govt exchequar of Gujarat state is saved every year . Mean time the post of the Aviation Adviser of Gujarat state has been abolished since then.
