Celebrating "Vellottam" ..going back to the sea..
After the numbing shock of the tsunami that struck on 26th December,
the world spontaneously rushed to the rescue of the devastated and
the dispossessed. Maitri, a registered organisation of socially conscious
citizens in Pune, who believe in mobilising people's support for people's
issues, responded too. They worked with tsunami-affected villages
along the coastline of Tamil Nadu, repairing boats and engines, providing
fishing nets and medical care. And now, the fishermen are returning
to the sea …giving everybody a reason to celebrate.
Join the celebrations on April 14 at S.M. Joshi Foundation Auditorium,
Off Shastri Road, Near Ganjve Chowk, (Near Niwara Old age home),
Pune - 411 004 at 6:00 p.m. sharp. Audio-visual presentations, interviews
with relief volunteers and a photo exhibition have been arranged.

leaders and showcases the industrial development, the entrepreneurial
spirit and role towards nation building in the last century. The
