Hi Vikram,
I meant that the SIG system is similar to the User Group system. In the SIG affiliation is
to the Chapter and in the User Group, the affiliation is to WMF directly.
The need for direct affiliation is felt because the Chapter does not seem to be democratic
(as you call it). Otherwise, the SIG would be a useful model to have.
Sorry that this took so many emails to explain.
Warm regards,
Pradeep

The "SIG" reply still seems to have no connection to your original mail and my

official body of Wikimedia India, if they want to."

effectively what you are trying to suggest here.
