Meeting with Mr Rajeev Chandrashekhar, Convener ABIDe

We had requested for a Praja meeting with Mr Rajeev Chandrashekhar, Rajya Sabha MP, and convener of ABIDe. He was kind enough to respond and indicate his willingness to meet. The date isn't set yet, we'd try get his time this weekend or next. Worst case, we have suggested weekday late evening time slot.
