After the Navsari Parsis overwhelmingly voted in favor of creating an aramgah on land adjacent to their Doongerwadi, The Parsee Voice (TPV) wrote to the trustees and secretary of the Navsari Samast Parsi Zarthoshti General Fund (NSPZGF) asking for "a copy of their trust deed/constitution to inspect the provisions therein. Why was the Tata no Wajifo, the proposed site of the aramgah adjacent to the dakhma lands, gifted to the anjuman?

They have not received a response to date.
