Meeting of U.P.E.A. , Zonal Elections and Farewell Function in Haldwani on 24 Feb 08

On 24 Feb a farewell function ,general meeting of members and Zonal Elections were organised in Haldwani.Farewell was given to Er. Kamal Mohan, CGM (retd), Er. A.S. Khan, EE (retd.), Er. JI.S.Khurana, Er. M.L. Singhla and Er. Ashok Gandhi.
It was a very emotional occasion for all.

In the post lunch session, a general meeting of members of Kumanon was held to discuss various issues and the agenda of U.P.E.A. This was followed by Election of the new Zonal Executive body of Kumaon. In addition to the previous offices, that of Joint Zonal Secretary (Kumaon) was established. Kalagarh branch which had in the past been part of Garhwal Zone, was reorganised by merging Kalagarh with Kashipur and Khatima with Rudrapur branch.

The names of newly elected office bearers are as folows:

Zonal Secretary (Kumaon) – Er. Anil Mishra.
Joint Zonal Secretary (Kumaon) - Er. Ravi Rajoura.
Branch Secretary (Ranikhet) – Er. Lalit Mohan Bisht
Branch Secretary (Kashipur) – Er. Jagbir Singh
Branch Secretary (Haldwani) – Er. Sanjay Kumar
Branch Secretary (Rudrapur) – Er. Snjay Tiwari

Er. P.C. Pant (DGM, UPCL) conducted the election process as the Election Officer. The newly elected office bearers were sworn in by Er. T.M. Bharadwaj (President, U.R.E.A).

As I am also the outgoing Zonal Secy (Kumanon), I look back and recall that last year has been very eventful. Branches of Kumaon were re- organised, strengthend and galvanised. Communication and mobilisation, whenever required, were total and immediate.

I wish the best of luck to the newly elected Zonal Executive Body and hope that they will continue to enjoy the same rapport with members.
