AGM (July 23) and Elections (July 24)
July 21, 2010
Dear Members of the Press Club, Mumbai
At the outset let me thank all of you for electing me (on July 26, 2008) to the Management of the Club for 2008-10.
The AGM of the club is to be held at 1.30 P M on Friday, July 23. I request all of you to attend the AGM and take part in the proceedings.
The elections for the President, office-bearers and Managing Committee for 2010-12 will be held from 12 Noon to 7 P M on Saturday, July 24. Please make it a point to take in this democratic exercise; even if you have to brave the monsoon showers.
Let me go back to 2008. I was approached by G.Viswanath (THE HINDU), Chandrashekhar Sant (my colleague at Maharashtra Times) and Vinod Khatri (Navbharat Times) to know of my interest in taking part in the elections in order to be part of the management of the Club.
I had taken up leadership roles in a number of events and hence I decided to give my consent and be part of a dedicated group that ran the administration of the club for many years. Thanks to the support extended by the members of the club, I was elected to the committee.
I would like to inform the members of the club that I would be a keen participant in the election process that will determine the management of the club for 2010-12.
I will be a candidate as part of the group that encouraged me to be associated with the activities and management of the club. I need your good wishes and support.
With warm regards and cheers,
Yours Sincerely
