Hi all,
I just discussed that if we can gather a good community in
delhi, then we will proceed further for Creation of Chapter.Its not about
to aim a Chapter without having Good Community.We will proceed further if we
get 10-20 member.Plz don't make it a serious issue.We all are part of the
Same family.
Regards
Mayur
