The 2020 journey of eFI was of determined growth. The Classic to New version of Google Sites neither hampered its existence nor migration to a fresh space with new CMS (content management system). All of its content is almost intact, except for formatting, which can be tackled as and when a page is tackled for updating. Thanks very much Garg ji for taking the strong decision of moving site content to a fresh space. Thanks to all contributors for keeping up with their posting routine. Regards.
