What is the purpose then?
I might as well send in a hard copy.

 Yesterday I participated in the Pune meetup and shared the update from

Hi Rohini/Srikanth,

I had a look at the form that was kindly provided to us at the Pune meeting 
(for discussion of WikiConference India, Mumbai 2011) by Arjuna this afternoon. 
NEFT is an option on the form and I feel the best option. Costs Rs.5 to process 
(any bank, anywhere in India) and available at ANY bank YOU bank with. All you 
need to do is go to your own bank with the Chapters bank A/c details (on the 
form), tell them you want to make and NEFT transfer (aka internet transfer) - 
they will process it for you. I am sure all of us have ATLEAST one personal 
bank A/c and this should not be an issue.

 Good job , chapter folks.
 With lots of enthusiasm and interest for Wikimedia/ Wikimedia in India, I
 am sure we may easily beat ( in a friendly way) the  biggest chapter -
 Wikimedia German/Deutschland with 1100+ members, very soon.


Thanks for your appreciation of the Chapter's initiative  and proposing  a
target for membership.

Yesterday I participated in the Pune meetup and shared the update from
chapter and launched the membership drive. I am happy to report we received
24 application forms in the event itself. I request all the co-oridnators of
the community meetups/outreach events across India to create awareness about
chapter membership,   distribute copies of membership applications and  help
in enrolling members quickly.


Cheers

Thanks Anirudha/Srikanth

I think the form mentions a mode of electronic payment. We can use NEFT
facility to transfer funds to the account mentioned and then give those
details in the form to have the application processed.

Arjuna Rao Chavala, can you please confirm that

I am cc'ing this mail to members...@wikimedia.in as well, probably they can
confirm that.
