Espousing the cause of saving rocks[1]


Frauke Quader is a German-born Hyderabadi environmental activist better known for her contribution espousing the cause of saving rock formations[2] in the twin cities[3] of Hyderabad and Secunderabad on the Deccan plateau, especially in promoting the rocks as a heritage.[4]
