It was arranged to conduct our anniversary celebrations during February
2011. All arrangements were done including the release of a souvenir
and the travel arrangements for our Association General Secretary Mr.
Jacob Vadakkadom was made as well. Due to the Political unrest in
Bahrain during early 2011, it was decided to postpone the program. A
special thanks to all our executive committee for their great efforts
poured in for this event. Later on, there were restrictions on such
gatherings and we had to cancel all our scheduled meets including the
Anniversary.
Onam – Our Onam celebrations were conducted on the 16th September,
2011 at South park restaurant Hall. Due to the restrictions on social
gatherings, the executive committee has decided to have a low profile
event hence avoided many guests from the community. It was an event
attended by some 100 family members and children. Various activities
were arranged for the kids and elders followed by the cultural programs
and the Grand Onam feast. The Official website of Bahrain Chapter www.sgcbahrain.com was officially inaugurated during the event.

were 18 meetings held during the period to discuss and decide on our
events and programs. All of these were arranged at our Members houses or
personal offices and are thankful for those extended this facility to
us
Support to Parent organization-
As part of our aim to reach the financially poor students and support
them, we were been able to sponsor the educational expenses for a
student at our college. Our Participation in an All India Seminar by UGC
at our college by sponsoring a day’s food for all the participants was
also appreciated by the organizers.
Other Programs-
We were invited for the inauguration of the new Arch at College
entrance in July 2010, sponsored by UAE chapter and Mr. Isaac Raju did

participated in the Annual Family Day on 2nd October
