Thanks for this information.  I have read the previous report, and look forward to the next one.

Is there also some kind of plan or strategy by the chapter, to give the community an idea of what agenda the chapter is pursuing at the national level?  With many communities and several user groups, I think it would be useful to learn what *the chapter* would like to do, given its national mandate, and where it might need help from other groups. 

Cheers,

Dear User : Asaf(WMF), 

Writing as per [1], I am taking the discussion forward here to a separate thread.

As stated before on this mailing thread [2], Wikimedia India (WMIN) has been undergoing activities and reporting them on quarterly basis. The subsequent quarterly results would be shared once the next quarter finishes. The subsequent quarterly report would be published in a changed formed based on suggestions received from the community [3]. Activities may be less due to no source of regular funds  [4] however, Community Members from India put their efforts, strive hard to take the movement ahead.  No Wikimedia Foundation Grants like Rapid Grant, Project Grant etc have been applied by WMIN members to support any Chapter activity. They remain self-financed.

WMIN is compliant with the reporting and the said could be attained from Chapter's Report page on Meta. However, there are few issues with the Affiliations Committee and the said have been communicated on WMIN Members-Mailing on May 15th. 2019. WMIN has requested Affiliations Committee to allow us to be more transparent by (a) Taking the conversation over Meta (b) Uploading All Mails Over A Cloud Document To Share It with a wider audience (c) Uploading All PDFs sent over mail to Commons etc.

User: Asaf(WMF), thank you for the wishes, let's work together, take the Chapter and Indian Community ahead. :) 
Regards, 
Abhinav
