I Propose to Conduct the Elections As Follows

NZAROI

ELECTION NOTIFICATION

As per decision of the General Body during the NZAROICON at Bhatinda & Jolly Grant, it was decided that elections for the posts of office bearers would be held at the NAROI meeting in Rohtak. I was given the task of conducting the elections. This would be the first endeavor to have elections in the NZAROI. Unfortunately we neither have a written constitution for the North Zone, nor do we have precedents to follow for elections! A lot of emails were exchanged between the President NZAROI, General Secretary NZAROI, Secretary General AROI and yours truly for past records of elections, documentation, precedents etc. but to no avail! Surely this highlights the need for developing SOP’s for various activities of the chapter!!

I propose to conduct the elections as follows:

Call for nominations to the posts from members, duly proposed and seconded. Publish the list of successful nominations, after due process of verification, withdrawals etc. Voting by secret ballot the GBM at the NZAROI at Rohtak. Criteria/Experience/Eligibility for the posts as per AROI Constitution.

The Election Commission shall consist of yours truly as per GBM decision, with Dr Rajiv Sharma from New Delhi assisting me along with Dr Rajesh Vashsitha, Dr Vivek Kaushal and Dr Rakesh Kapoor. The decision of the Election Commission being final and binding on all.

The following posts require to be filled up and the eligibility criteria as per AROI constitution are:

President- 1- Ten years as a valid and active member of AROI

Vice- President-1- Ten years as a valid and active member of AROI
