Thus far we’re 12 ICA colleagues from outside India with several additional colleagues yet to commit, about 12-15 ICA colleagues from within India, and about 10 Maliwada residents. The exciting news is that amongst those attending there’ll be about 7-8 from the then emerging generation cohort who attended primary school in Aurangabad.

 

Our major next step is to plan accommodation and transport logistics so anyone keen to join please email Hiraman Gavai on hsgavai at gmail.com <mailto:hsgavai at gmail.com>  or Dharmalingam on dvinasithamby at yahoo.com <mailto:dvinasithamby at yahoo.com>  or Kevin Balm on balmkevbin at gmail.com <mailto:balmkevbin at gmail.com>
