Dear Prateek,

As I conveyed to you earlier, we shall not be able to participate in Spring Fest this year. I, on behalf of the Wikimedia India Chapter Kolkata community, sincerely apologize for our inability.

The entire Kolkata community is busy with preparations for the stall at Kolkata Book Fair, starting 29 January and continuing till 9 February. Preparations for the same would start from 19 January and continue till the inauguration on 28 January. In this situation it would be really difficult for us to conduct Wiki Academy at IIT Kharagpur sometime between 24-26 January. So we have formally decided to call it off year at our internal meeting held last week. We were waiting for your mail, so that we could reply back to.

Even though we are not able to participate in Spring Fest this year, we would definitely like to participate next year. Kindly let us know your dates in advance, so that we can plan accordingly. We would also like to convey to you that we are open to conducting workshops any time during the year. It doesn't always have to be a Spring Fest or some big occasion to have the workshop. It can be done in anytime during the year.

Thanks and regards, Kalyan Sarkar

Dear Sir,

As discussed over phone with Mr. Kalyan. We would like to have the association with Wikipedia similar to last year.

I firmly believe that the asociation between Spring Fest, IIT Kharagpur and Wiki Chapter India has a long way to go.

We will be more than happy to conduct the session on any of the days from 24th to 26th of January. Mr. Kalyan please let me know which dates suit you best.

Hoping for a prompt and positive reply.

Regards.
