Abhishek, how dramatic of you!?!?
I thought you were a Wikipedian but evidwntly you have missed out on an important concept
called Verifiability. Please substantiate your claim with a proper source.
Also the Annual General Meeting,aka AGM was last held in September 2012 which would imply
that the next one would be a year later. Where does flight tickets for something NINE
WHOLE MONTHS AWAY come from?

It will be unfair to call it cheating, however -
1)Chapter is having 1.5 Lack+ Rupees in existing account.
2)Major Chapter Expenses such as Flight Tickets for AGM are covered by CIS.
I am waiting for someone to answer simple query - How much money is required for next year
activities? and Which activities are planned?
Lets have this clarity and transparency, so together we can make sure India Chapter is
also strong (financially) like other Chapters.

Interesting isn't it? That one should have timed that A2K bulletin to come out exactly
when the Chapter is having a fundraiser and leave people like the good Doctor here
confused about all this? Seems a bit deliberately done, don't you think?
Too bad I ain't an Indian citizen, Else I would have donated a tremendous amount to
you guys.Will spread the word on donations though.
For others, please donate (liberally);

Hi Dr. Nawab Hakim,to clarify, the 2lakh that you are referring to was made as a grant to
the Centre for Internet and Society, an independent organisation working out of Delhi.
The Wikimedia Chapter (India) is independent society registered in India, under the
Karnataka Societies Act. It is a Non-Profit entity comprising of volunteers. We rely on
donations to run the Chapter.
I hope this clears it out.
