Hari Divekar an electrical engineer. While working in the electrical and engineering
trade he became fascinated with natural history and became an active member of
the Bombay Natural History Society. He helped the society in organizing nation
wide snake exhibitions to increase awareness about reptiles in the layman. Between
1983 to 1990 he acquired lands within 2 hours driving distance of Mumbai, Pune
and Nashik, hoping to develop these into nature oriented reserves. His idea was
to provide a quick natural getaway to people in these metros. After a long and
hard struggle, he has been able to successfully accomplish his mission. Along
the way, he has also published several papers on The Asiatic Wild Bufallo in the
BNHS and other Natural History Journals. He was invited by the IUCN, a UN body
to present a paper on the Asiatic Wild Bufallo to Bangkok among other eminent
naturalists from throughout the world. He continues to oversee a flourishing business
manufacturing O rings and Gaskets. | | | |
