# Dr. Channa Reddy 340 W. 55th Street, New York, N.Y. 10019, U.S.A. **Personal My dear Dr. Channa Reddy, Please accept the blessings of Lord Krishna. I have been informed by my secretary, Gopal Krishna dasa Adhikari, that a new law has been introduced whereby income from temples is now taxed to the extent of 7%. He further informed me that several other religious organizations such as ours have received tax-exemption status. I trust that you will kindly provide our institution, being a purely religious and non-profit charitable organization, with the same facility of tax-exemption. Thank you once again. I hope that this meets you in good health. Your ever well-wisher, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami ACBS/pks
