Okay, so the person who blasted me about Trichy caught me on this one too.
Let me clarify.
Tinu, I know the Chapter has been supportive of my actions even though I'm not a member [yet].
Naveen was more than ready to sign the MoU much before I informed Nitika.
I am NOT claiming travel amount from the Chapter as I feel there is NO justification in me claiming INR 395 [275+120 Kovai-Tiruchi-Kovai], from a Voluntary Non profit organisation, especially when I made so many mistakes and errors before, after and during the T'palli event.
The India Chapter has always been supportive of the Community, whether they're members or not.
Naveen, as an EC member of the Chapter was the first person to offer support to me for setting up the Coimbatore community.
Apart from this, the India Chapter has been the only body [in India, the Chair of the UK chapter offered his support] that has supported me for my QR Pedia ideas.
I hope this clarifies everything.

Tinu,
Someone from the Chapter, [I DO NOT want to name him] told me so.
I do not want to take the matter furtheer because I travelled at my expense. I am NOT claiming it from the Chapter.
Good Day, Cheerio.

Dear Srikanth,
Who told you that your travel expenses
for NITT will not be reimbursed since you are not a chapter member ? Don't
spread false accusations !
Didn't Naveen say that your travel expenses related to NIIT, even before you are traveling to Trichy?
Regards
Tinu Cherian

This was the sole reason I went to Trichy, [at my expense, There is some ambiguity, there too, I was told that the Chapter would reminburse my travel amount, later was told that since I'm not a member, it wouldn't be possible, whatever be the case, I don't care, I still had fun].
