 Being a young association with very limited members, OBA Bangalore has little corpus and very limited access to fund raising activities. However the members decided to send 50 % of the annual fees to OBA SSG. This is to ensure that we remain within the larger OBA forum and we can channelize our efforts towards improving SSG via OBA SSG.

 As we would be participating financially we would expect OBA SSG to maintain high standards of financial scrutiny and maintain proper records of transactions.

 President of OBA Bangalore Lt Col Buddhindra Lakhar would attend the OBA Guwahati meet planned on 1o April 2010
