After welcoming the members to the AGM, the immediate former-president Sunil Jain requested president Atul Goel, honourary general secretary Prakash Dass and treasurer Puneet Talwar to take their seats on the dais.
In his welcome address, Goel expressed his gratitude to the members for reposing their faith in him by electing him as president for the year 2022-2023 and also for extending their full cooperation to him.
In his speech, he also highlighted the association's activities during the period of 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023.
