NEW DELHI: Do not erect a memorial when I die, but plant a tree if you loved and respected me, said Union Minister Anil Madhav Dave in his will.
Dave, who died here today at the age of 60, had also expressed the desire to be cremated on the banks of the Narmada, a river that was close to his heart and ran through his home state of Madhya Pradesh

The will also said if people loved and respected him, they should not erect a memorial in his name anywhere, the source said.
