All the apartment owners in Mahindra Eminente must have received notice for First Annual General Meeting on Saturday 21st April 2011 at 1730 hrs in Clubhouse. Few important points on the Agenda are as follows:
1. Induction of those flat owners as members of the society who had not yet signed the documents of society formation. In order not to get entangled in government procedural quagmire and delays at that moment it is recommended to bring along your photo identity card and copy of flat purchase agreement.
2. Second and MOST IMPORTANT agenda item is to select/ elect the members of Managing Committee who will subsequently takeover from MLDL, the reins of day to day management of society affairs.
Constitution of Managing Committee is most important in the sense that right set of skill-set within the management committee will be able to skillfully outline the future of this residential complex. It is unarguably true that only the right set of leaders bring along the leadership skills to lead with honour and lead by example. Not so long ago, one resident had mentioned few important points in his email of date 10th March 2011 and one very important word which appreciatively caught my attention was - "Raj Dharma".
Now when we are on the verge of constituting the managing committee, shouldn't we choose the people who can exercise "Raj Dharma" selflessly without fear or favour, without any vested interests, can lead by example, be the role model, provide character-based leadership, have with them what is required to lead with honour, are strong enough to lead authentically from the inside out/ from their own true North.
We desperately need the managing committee with the people who have their values and ethical standards sorted out and truly committed to them, who will lead with honor, who can constantly engage in the battle to guard their character.
In order to search for such individuals, it was decided after the meeting of residents on 18th April that we shall assemble again on 19th April night at 2130 hrs. On 19th April meeting began in humble note but ended with people reaching to highest possible decibel level. Interestingly we got introduced to some new faces with some new motives and some new agendas. The sudden unfolding of new events laden with some new motives and some new agendas was so swift that while sitting there in amphitheatre we couldn’t help but smelling a rat which largely signified something fishy and like flies swarming around a spoonful of honey.
It’s a seriously challenging task to vote and elect deserving people. I am going to suggest something, some may like to disagree with. I completely understand and very comfortable by the fact that disagreements are very healthy and is one very important hallmark of democratic society. I also don’t know who all are going to contest the election on 21st to secure place in Managing Committee. Over a period of last two years whatever I observed, based upon the participation and enthusiasm in society related matters, I have no hesitation in taking the liberty of short listing following ladies and gentlemen, in no specific order of preference:
Mr Paresh Shah
Mr Shafi Sheikh
Mr Arif Siddiqui
Mr Anish Gupta
Mr Shrenik Baid
Dr Neeta Modi
Dr Amit Shah
Mrs Priti Gupta
Mr Ravi Krishnamoorthy
Mr Mahadevan
Mr Sanjay Dosi
Mr Rajesh Sonawane.
Mr Nagendra Pai
Mr Vilas Aras.
Mr Vivek Lodha
Mrs Meenakshi Jaura
Mr Kedar Sohoni
Mr Nilesh
Only 7 or 9 office bearers can be selected as per norms of managing committee formation. This list is produced in good faith with due respect to all, without meaning any offence to anyone not finding mention in this list. Some names have been knowingly omitted because those gentlemen are not comfortable about entering into fray. Surely there may be few more interested candidates who may like to come forward and in a democratic set up which is very much welcome and likeable.
I have just put together my thoughts above. You may choose to either accept or decline the suggestion. I very humbly acknowledge the fact that all the members in this society are greatly respectful and intelligent enough to make their own informed decisions. My only humble advice is to please come and attend the first AGM in large numbers and don’t hesitate to elect people worthy of your trust.
Wish you all great weekend. See you all on Saturday 21st April at 1730 hrs in the clubhouse.
