I have been informed that if we write to the appropriate dept. in India then the local police will get in touch with the person who has threatened us for our safety in India and will warn that person not to harm us while we are visiting India. It seems that letter has to go through the local Indian Consulate in U.S..A to the concerned departments in India. If any of you have any information on this please do let me know immediately since I am planning to go to India on December 01. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
