Several programmes of action have been successfully observed. The recent dharnas on 23-03-2011 organised at Circle/Regional Head quarters were a grand success all over the Country, we congratulate our members and the leadership at different levels for observing the programmes so successfully.

 

          You are further aware that the next programme is to hold circle level conventions during April-June 2011 to highlight and popularize our demands. This is a very vital and important programme where we should invite local public leaders and gentry to attend the convention. We should apprise them of our problems to gather more public support. We sincerely hope that our Circle Secretaries will organize the Convention in a befitting manner. The date of the convention may be finalished according to local convenience.
