 Harshita Saxena surrenders Miss India 
                    Earth title       Mumbai: Harshita 
                    Saxena has voluntarily surrendered her Miss India Earth 2008 
                    title here today. Harshita Saxena took this step in lieu of 
                    the allegations raised by Gladrags officials. Tanvi Vyas has 
                    taken her place as the new Pantaloons Femina Miss India Earth 
                    2008. Earlier, on Tuesday, at a press conference in Mumbai, 
                    President of Gladrags beauty pageants Maureen Wadia claimed 
                    that Harshita is a model from her company and she is under 
                    contract with them. Maureen also said Harshita could not participate 
                    in any other beauty contest and threatened legal action against 
                    her. "Harshita Saxena from Goa is a Gladrags model. She was 
                    a part of my Megamodel Contract in April 2006. Her contract 
                    has not expired and this girl has entered in some other contest 
                    before the contract has expired. The contract clearly says 
                    that they have to take my permission," said Wadia. Harshita 
                    Saxena was the third runner-up at the Miss India event held 
                    on Saturday night. -April 11, 2008
