In view of large fund in Banks as FD, auditors have advised us to invest in land / building in the name of ISA, otherwise money will go out as tax etc.

Branch activities: Branches are using our website for reporting and many have uploaded their account details and report. Few branches report their activities online regularly. Branches in Maharashtra & Kerala need special mention in this regard. It is very unfortunate that many branches are electing non members as Office Bearers (both State & City). In many cases they are inactive members are elected as Office bearers. GB has approved that only active members belonging to that City / State Branch only can become Office Bearer of that Branch. But, many cases this is not followed and corrected in spite of calling and telling.

Grant in Aid or Branch share was disbursed to all State Branches who have submitted their annual report and audited accounts.

ISA sponsored CMEs / Workshops were conducted at Haldwani, Jammu, Madikeri, Raipur, Eluru, Vizayanagaram, Thanjavoor, Bhubaneshwar & ISA PG Assemblies at Malappuram (SZ), Lucknow (CZ), Cuttack (EZ) and they were really good. First ISA Webinar on Obstetric Anaesthesia was conducted on 17.11.18 from Hyderabad. It was a grand success and in many places they arranged projections in Halls etc for many members / PGs to participate.

Many branches & members are conducting public awareness programs & BLS for public and medical professionals. To mention a few Virtual OT 7 ICU at Vizag by ISA Visakhapatnam, Short film on FBF, CPR & public awareness by Dr. Sasidharan President of ISA Kerala, short films by members in Maharashtra. COLS on WRAH Day was a grand success. We have gifted 130 manikins to various City & State Branches.

The details of office bearers from most City Branches are made available to National Hq. and is being updated in the website on day today basis. But many branches do not inform anything to the Hq. Kerala & Maharashtra are sending regular reports. President & Secretary of ISA Kerala have reported that they have visited all the City Branches in their state. State Secretaries of Maharashtra, Karnataka & Kerala are always calling HQ or me and update their members status or state details.

Scientific Committee Meetings

The first Scientific Committee meeting was held at Noida in Janurary which President, Academic Chairman, Editor in Chief, GC Member & myself attended. The second Scientific Committee meeting was held at Agra on April 21 & 22 in which President, Academic Chairman, GC Member& myself attended. Then meetings were conducted by video-conference.

Resuscitation Council

Our long time dream of having ISA resuscitation council a reality. COLS & BLS trainings are conducted at various parts. Dr. Chakra Rao is doing a commendable job. Dr. Rakesh Garg, Dr. Syed Ahmed Moeid & Dr. Mukul Chandra Kapoor are doing good job. We had massive COLS program on World Restart A Heart day, i.e., on 23.10.2018.

Journals:

Nearly 3000 members requested for IJA print version for the next year during Aug Sept. 2018. It is done through ISA website & member has to activate his / her membership & update details & proceed.

Relations with Asian countries: We are keeping contact with President & Secretaries of Asian Societies and inviting them to ISACON Agra. President / Secretary of Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Afghanistan & Malaysia are invited. We had invitation from Sri Lanka, Bangla, Nepal, Pan Arab & Malaysian Societies for their Conferences.

Inland Fellowship: Total 26 candidates have completed their fellowship training at various centers of excellence & their expenses were reimbursed. Now we have to give them Certificates.

We have acted when our members were in trouble. Contacted the Office Bearers of Gorakhpur & Jammu when members were in trouble and offered our help whatever they need. We even offered to visit Gorakhpur.

In the agitation against NMC, we have joined with IMA, are members of FOMA & participated in Maha Panchayath and also sent memorandum to the Prime Minister.

Now, I wish to make a few observations. Very few of the City & State Branches have submitted their Annual Report & audited accounts. Many are not following our Constitution, Rules & Protocols. We have to give strict directions to all City & State Branches to follow the Constitution, Rules & Protocols. The City / State Branches do not inform death of members to ISA NHQ. Even in Conference inauguration or any function many state & city branches do not know the protocol & do not follow them.

It is a great experience as Secretary of ISA National for 4 years. There were ups and downs. Most unfortunate thing is that my own state members shouting at me and questioning my integrity and support to the state when their bid for hosting ISACON was not successful and two members of my own state who have worked for me in my elections and were great friends were suspended & I had to send that suspension letter to them. Other one is suspecting my integrity in election matters this year by losing members. I tried to do it as transparent as possible and was appreciated for this, but when results were not as expected, some have lost all faith and questioning my integrity. I am only a Pradhan Sevak. But more are happiest moments; appreciation of members for the work done is really great. I did this with devotion and interest doing justice to the post to which you all elected me and the confidence you have in me. Only thing I could not do was that I could not fulfill the wish of my Guru Dr BRK to host a National Conference in Kerala. I failed to get support to them to host a Conference in my own state.

I must thank my colleagues, surgeons, patients for adjusting my time during my ISA work and travel. My family members to whom I could not give much attention in these 4 years deserve special mention. I did not go even once to see my daughter studying in Medical College, now appearing final exams, but I went to so many ISA meetings. I will visit her after I relinquish my office and before her final exams. At home also I couldn’t spare time for family as all time I was in front of computer or receiving phone calls from members or prospective members. I am missing my treasurer partner Dr. Abdul Hameed with whom I was travelling last 25 years attending ISA Conferences. He was not there to Preside over ISACON South in Trivandrum when he was ISA Kerala

President due to MI & now when we hand over his charge as Treasurer. Unfortunately he is in coma since 31.08.18 following cardiac arrhythmias.

Wherever I went as Secretary our members and colleagues welcomed and received very well, looked after well as their own person. It is a great joyful experience. Two senior persons who I always remember are Dr. Avtar Singh and Dr. Tej Kaul of Ludhiana who always enquire about my parents’ health when ever we meet or talk over phone (During the inauguration of ISACON Ludhiana my parents met with an accident). Colleagues and friends received me very well at all places. Special mention about Dr. Manisha Katikar & Dr. Anjali Bhure, waiting at 4.30 in the morning to receive me at Karad. Dr. Suresh Bhargava, Dr. Debasis, Dr. Subhendu, Dr. Mahesh Sinha, Dr. P Kumar, Dr Jheetay, Dr. Geeta Bhandary, Dr. Attri, Dr BRK.

I have attended many Zone Conferences, State Conferences, CMEs, etc. in last 4 years as Secretary, more so in last 2 years. Some are extremely good, give attention to minute points but some are very casual. I strongly suggest all to read Constitution & Rule Book, consult seniors and previous organisers or call National Secretary or GC members to know the protocols and rules, what to do, how to do & what not to do. I have visited almost all states and many city branches. I keep MP and MH at highest level, Punjab, UK next. Among city branches, it is Raipur, Nagpur, Satara, Jammu, Amritsar, Pune, Pimpri Chinchwad, Jammu Saifai, Lucknow, Moradabad, Haldwani & all have done well. In many places waiting at very early morning at 4 am (Dr Bhure & Dr Katikar, hats off to you) to receive me shows their affection. Hats off to them. In Trivandrum, past National President, my Guru Dr BRK himself came to Airport to pick me, Coimbatore & Trichy Dr. Sudarshan himself accompanied, took me to his home for dinner. I am not writing National Conference Organisers as I am also part of it. Katyalji is great host, Subhendu is great company, Suresh Bhargava received me & accompanied me at Jodhpur & Bikaner. Brig Prabhakar was there in Saifai, Virender & Bharat in Lucknow, Naveen at Gurugram in ISACON Haryana, ASK Rao and entire team at Rajahmundry, Dr Mahesh Kumar Sinha in Raipur, Dr. Gangadhar in Bengaluru, Sukhdev Naik in Bhubaneswar, Harshwardhan at Ujjain, Attri in Amritsar, Prof. P. Kumar & Jheetay at Moradabad, Debasis in Cuttack. Among women leaders I must

15 mention Dr. Gouri Arora, Sheetal Dalal & Sunita Lawange of Nagpur, Nandita & Shikha of Jammu, Deepika of Ujjian, Geeta Bhandary of Haldwani in the forefront of ISA activities. Of course I can’t leave Dr. Tarlika & Nibedita. Among state leaders I should mention Dr Sriganesh (Karnataka), Binil (Kerala), Raikwar (MP), Kishan (TG), Sudarshan (TN), Surajit (Assam), Venugopal (AP), Bharat Bhushan (UP)& Manisha (MH) for doing excellent things for their state and members. Dr SM Basu & Anjanda met every time I went to Kolkata. Great experience.

Some states and organisers are very casual and many times felt why I came here. They consider us as burden. I never went on myself, but on invitation only. I can even go without any invitation to see what is happening, it is my right as Secretary. All state, city or Zone Conference Organisers must understand that Secretary is also a practicing anaesthesiologist like them, coming to attend the Conference leaving family and practice only for strengthening the Society and improve relationship.

Whenever you call President or Secretary, receive them respectfully, keep them in separate room than sharing with other delegates or faculty,( if you are unable to provide tell in advance, they will arrange or some one else will arrange it) discuss with them about protocol, inaugural function etc. Provide them vehicle if they want to go out (of course the pharma company will provide, but you ask for courtesy). A few days before the program please call and tell local arrangements made for pick up and drop, accommodation and provide details of the inaugural function and any other assignments given to them. In one place, where I was invited, they were not knowing who I am & I did not meet State Secretary in the whole program, he talked over my mobile and said he will come to my room with President, take me to dinner but I did not see him, I called him, his mobile was switched off ⁉

I am thankful to our Office staff who did the work in time and meticulously. I am thankful to all in the GC, past and present for their support & help. Special Thanks to President Dr. Kuchela Babu, IPP Dr. B. B. Mishra, PP Dr. A.S.K. Rao, Dr. S S Harsoor, EiC Dr. Divatia, Treasurer Dr. Abdul Hameed, President elect Dr Bala Bhaskar, GC Member Dr. Kiran Kumar Gera & all friends in GC

Dr. Venkatagiri K. M.

Hon. Secretary

President & EIC said that the updating of address is not required every year, only if there is change you have to update. You request only whether you want print IJA or online IJA. Editor said that Dr. Virendra Sharma’s name was added to the mailing list and will check now. Dr. Naveen said that it is the responsibility of Publisher and not editor. Dr. Bharat opposed this and said that it is editor’s responsibility and not publishers.

Dr. Suresh Bhargava wanted to know what is the hidden items Secretary explained that there is nothing hidden and it is due to computer snag and change from MS Word to PDF.

He is a member and an officer. He wanted clarification. He wanted an apology or he will quit ISA. Secretary filing caveat against a member is not accepted. If Secretary has done on his own without GC approval it is wrong he does not accept it. Who permitted it? What made you to file it? Who endorsed him to do it? What way I have offended the Society. Secretary insulted him. He wanted to quit ISA for insulting by Caveat. It kills him What made Secretary to presume ALM is filing case? Did GC permit Secretary to file case. Secretary is provoking.
