Epilogue
The last two years that I have been serving the society as the honorary secretary have been very
enjoyable. I have tried my best to make the activities of the society transparent and accessible to all
members. If in this endeavor I have hurt anybody I apologize and I can assure you that it has not been
intentional.. I wish to thank all the office bearers of the society for their direction and timely
suggestions. I take this opportunity to thank Dr. Deepak Kirpekar, Dr. Meyyappan, Dr. Jagdish
Kulkarni, Dr. Percy Chibber and Dr. S. K. Singh for all their help. My special thanks to our treasurer
Dr. Keshavamurthy for all his inputs and suggestions. I thank all the staff of the Central office
particularly Navneet Arora, Mrs. Kiran Arora and Rahul for all the help in the smooth running of the
affairs of the society. I am thankful to all the members of the society for all the support and help
during the last two years. I will be failing in my duty if I do not acknowledge the tremendous support
that the society has been getting from Dr. Reddy's Lab and Olympus for all the educational activity
and the residents international fellowships. God bless USI.

Treasurer Report
Dear Members
Greetings from Bangalore
Wishing all of you a Happy and Prosperous New year 2015
It is my pleasant duty to present to you the audited statement of accounts for year ending 31st March 2014. The total membership of USI has been increasing every year and presently it is 3073 and few more would be added before I present it in the AGM.
The financial health of the society is in good health with the total assets reaching 5 crores. This year we had good number of academic activities done by the Board of Education, USI. We were able to generate finances for all these activities thanks to the academic grant from the industry specially Dr Reddys Lab.
Unfortunately we have not been able to fulfill the promise of e-voting this year due to legal problems although we have a robust software designed for this purpose. I am confident that we would be able to get it going in the coming year.
The central office of USI put in a lot of effort to update the addresses of the members this year. We have been able to update the addresses along with the photograph of 1733 members till date. My earnest request to all the members to please update your address .
I would like to thank our President, Dr Deepak Kirpekar, Hon Secretary Prof D Ramesh and all the council members for the help and support extended to me during the last year. I would like to thank staff of the central office and Mr Rahul for their help.
Looking forward to meet all of you at Ranchi for USICON 2015
Dr Keshavamurthy RTreasurer, [email protected]
