Dear friends,
FYI.....last Saturday, it was great to meet Sandeep Pandey, the founder of
Asha-for-education at the AID Community Service Hour. Sandeep is also the
youngest Indian to get the Magsaysay award. Along with Sandeep was Ravi
Kuchimanchi, founder of AID. Two stalwarts who have returned to India to bring
change - what a memorable day!
Sandeep gave a speech about his 2005 "Delhi to Multan" peace march and the
challenges from both Indian and Pakistani Govts for visas and all related
things. I asked Sandeep if he has plans to visit Assam/North East - he was
interested! He had earlier visited Tamulpur, Assam near Bhutan border for a
Asha conference. Ravi is definitely planning on visiting AID Guwahati in
Sept/Oct. He leaves the US end of August. Ravi is deeply interested in the RTI
Act movement.
Umesh - thank you for your passionate involvement.............I got your
voicemail last night. I copy all my interested friends.
cheers,
Partha
