It’s indeed been one of my great privileges to work along and lead a fantastic team of selfless volunteers at ICRF. Past few years, in the capacity of General Secretary and later on as the Chairman, I have been able to work along with a grand team and achieve many accolades for our organization. No words can meaningfully express my sincere gratitude to all of you – the ICRF Team Members. In the past few years, as a Team, we could bring forward the organization ICRF to the forefront of community support and activities. We could also create a fresh, vibrant and energetic organizational identity.
We could rebrand ICRF Spectra and transform it to a different level of achievement; in the Year 2018 and 2019, and the event also highlighted “SPECTRA & Tribute to Bahrain – Indian Heritage Festival” featuring the Indian Art forms, Dance, Music and varied Cuisines from 29 states of India. As a Team we could also establish “ICRF Regional Forum” an extension of ICRF by adding the representatives from every state of India and we also established “ICRF Women’s Forum” a new initiative to address the needs of Indian Women. We also have been able to establish numerous outreach programs to support the Indian community.
This was all possible because of the unparalleled support from His Excellency Piyush Srivatava the Ambassador of India and the numerous past and present Embassy officials. I also extend my sincere gratitude to all our event sponsors, supporters, Business Houses, Indian Organizations, Media personnel, etc for your continued support to ICRF.
The strength of every organization is its vision and ability of its leaders to view it all together. The changes of leadership will empower more and more individuals to higher level of performance and responsibility. I am sure the future leaders will take this noble organization to higher strides of achievements.

Thank You
