<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">I support the proposal.<br>
<br>
I think Wikimedia India chapter should earnestly consider showcasing the<br>
success in the Indic language projects, the campus ambassador programs and<br>
Wiki Conference India 2011 at the Kolkata Book Fair 2012. This would be a<br>
major outreach program, that would boost the growth of Wikimedia projects<br>
in India, eastern India and the North East in particular.<br>
<br>
Thanks and regards,<br>
Kalyan Sarkar<br>
