RE:Mayur - As I suggested, you could request the Chapter to appoint a regional committee
(with certain autonomy, reporting directly to the EC). This should solve all your issues.
Can you please explain exactly how a new chapter will help Delhi? Further I am sure your
aware it took about 2 years in getting the India Chapter sorted, it takes a lot of time
effort and money in dealing with bureaucracy in getting registered. By the time you have
gone through that you will be zapped - just whats happened in the India Chapter case where
they are now getting their bearings together. The guys have done all the hard work, let us
look forward. If you feel that you could do better if you were part of the Chapter
Executive Committee - stand for elections at the next AGM!
Further, its unfair to say that the Chapter and foundation are not on your side. For
example, Anirudh, a member of the Chapter EC was on ground in Delhi earlier this year
organising Wikipedia X celebrations. The foundation office is based in Delhi - how can you
say that the Foundation has given Delhi a pass? If you have this attitude in Delhi then
just imagine what the West or East of India should think - the Foundation is in the North
and Chapter in the South with the East and West squashed in between! Let us remember we
are part of the Union of India.
