It will be unfair to call it cheating, however - 1)Chapter is having 1.5 Lack+ Rupees in existing account.
2)Major Chapter Expenses such as Flight Tickets for AGM are covered by CIS. I am waiting for someone to answer simple query - How much money is required for next year activities? and Which activities are planned? Lets have this clarity and transparency, so together we can make sure India Chapter is also strong (financially) like other Chapters.
