  • Bihar Chapter: Selection of Office Bearers on 8 December

    Dear IIMCians,

     

    It was great meeting our alumnus of our alma mater- IIMC. Despite festivity fever, we had an attendance of 11 alumnus in the meeting at Patliputra Ashok Hotel, Patna on 21st November, 2012.

     

    IIMCians present in the meeting decided that selection of office bearers be taken up during next meeting on December 8, Sunday. It has been proposed that the next meeting can be held at residence of Mr Shambhu Nath, Vice Chancellor, Patna University or conference hall of Jeevika.

     

    It was also estimated that there are more than 40 alumni working or living in Bihar. In the next meeting we will ensure a larger participation and select officer bearers for the Bihar Chapter of IIMC Alumni Association. Suggestions were also made to hold monthly meeting.

     

    We need to bring all our alumni together. It will be very helpful if we circulate this mail/ message to others who are not aware of this meeting.

     

     

    Thanks & Regards,

    Alok Gupta, Coordinator
