Abstract

With the advent of the year 2003 the 36th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Institute was weathered in and was held on 24th January (03) at the Rosewood Hall, Park Hotel, Kolkata. President of the Institute Dr. Baldev Raj had chaired the AGM and had ably conducted the meeting. However Dr. Baldev Raj could not continue as President beyond the tenure due to his pressing personal assignment. The Institute would surely miss his leadership. We wish him all success. We also gracefully welcome the new President of the Institute Mr. K. M. Panthaki and all the members of the council for the year 2002-2003. We look forward to the development to new heights during the coming year.
