The Rotary Club of Udaipur Meera organized an annual meet cum facilitation ceremony, to mark an end to the glorious session of 2011-12. The function began today, 27th of June at RKay Mall in the afternoon by seeking almighty’s blessings after which President Dr.Veena Sanadhya began the meet by striking a hammer against the rotary gong.
Dr.Chirayu Pamecha, the renowned spine surgeon who is also the founder member of ‘Save a Child Trust’ was the guest of honor for the ceremony.

He shared the prestigious stage with Promodini Baxi, a senior Advocate and CA Nirmal Singhvi, President Veena Sanadhya and Secretary Devika Singhvi.
President Dr.Veena then enlightened the audience by her speech in which she briefed about the works done by the organization over the year and thanked her mates for their meaningful contribution. She also quoted a beautiful line from a poem which resembled the ups and downs of her life’s journey. Being an emotional moment for her on the last day of her tenure as president, she admitted it was really a challenge to hold the president’s chair and bear the responsibilities, but with all the blessings and cooperation of her mates, she was thankfully able to take steps wisely.
After this, Promodini Baxi took over the stage and while delivering her speech she gave the good news that she will provide free services to the affected females who cannot afford the fees and said that a divorced woman should, instead of crying on her destiny and her in-laws should become self-sustainable and try to work in the field which interests and attracts her the most, she also assured that Rotary club will fully help in their rising.
