President’s Message – 2013

We aim to nurture our pupils so that they can compete in the globalizing world and cherish their ethos. We endeavor to produce, as it were, “Ocean liners with Indian anchors.”

The Mandal projects Gujarati Culture to Delhi. Since its inception more than 48 years ago, Mandal was registered on 18-11-63 under Societies Registration Act 1860 (Registration No. S 5072). It has grown in stature from a modest beginning through untiring efforts and dedicated service by office-bearers over the last three decades. I acknowledge my gratitude to all present and past office bearers in particular and Mandal members in general for their selfless service in enhancing the cultural aspirations of the Gujarati people of Delhi by their active involvement and participation in various activities. The Mandal members have been organizing festivals on Gujarat art and crafts, Gujarati food festivals, Ras Garba, Navratri dandiya, New year get-togethers, etc. The Mandal also encourages literary, educational and sports activities among the children of its members by providing annual scholarships and prizes. Society can witness Gujaratis’ national and international outlook in the participation of Delhites of all ethnic groups in our programs. We are grateful to our generous donors and volunteers for the success of our program, without which we could not have achieved the same.

Our Mandal also jointly participated in Sardar Patel Jayanti Celebrations, organized by the Gujarat Education Society. The Mandal organized Weekend Dandiya, Ashthmi and Sharad Purnima programs at Gulmohar Club on 21″ Oct, 22nd Oct and 28″ Oct 2012 at Gulmohar Park, which was attended mainly by members, their friends and members of the club with the active participation of Gulmohar Club for which we are deeply grateful.


We are also particularly grateful to advertisers and donors, mainly Play Sports Entertainment Pvt Ltd (Samir Rajpal & Gaurav Misra). Mrs. Tina Talwar, Shri & Smt. Krishnakant Oza has generously contributed to making our programs and Souvenirs a success. We will be failing in our duty if we do not acknowledge particular thanks to Rahul Patel, Binduben Misra, Sunidhiben Patel, and Darshana Kapasi. Sachinaben Patel, for Rangoli. Nutan Varshaabhinandan was organized at Sardar Patel Vidyalya on 14″ Nov 2012. We hope that our esteemed donors will continue to extend their cooperation in enabling us to serve the worthy cause of fulfilling the cultural aspirations of Gujaratis in Delhi mainly.
