It is indeed a great honour and responsibility to chair the Board of Governors for the next five years. I am grateful to members of the IPSS for choosing me to succeed Sunil K Munjal.

The driving force to help in earnest cannot be based on guilt or pressure; but a deep sense of inner gratitude and a sustained wish to help do whatever little unconditionally. This deep sense of gratitude emanates from the two-fold test i.e. ability to do and the intention to deliver…thus the wherewithal to have the ability to help/assist co-existing with an inner desire of positivity to work and deliver is where we find ourselves blessed.
