[Swatantra Party Minuits Of Meeting]

Summary

This English-language office record documents a meeting of the Swatantra Party, Maharashtra, held on 26 March 1985 at the party office at 143 Mahatma Gandhi Road, Bombay. It lists five attendees, with Parmanand Kejriwal in the chair, and records the nomination of the 1985 office bearers: Kejriwal as president, J. Venkiteswaran as general secretary, L. R. Sampat as joint secretary, and S. L. Popat as treasurer.

The record also resolves to reconstitute the Executive Committee. S. V. Raju, J. Venkiteswaran, and K. H. Subramaniam are authorised to nominate the committee in consultation with the president. A further resolution supersedes an earlier resolution of 27 January 1981 and authorises any two of four named office bearers to operate the party’s current account with the Union Bank of India. The meeting concludes with a vote of thanks to the chair. The five rendered pages are duplicate or near-duplicate copies of the same record, including draft markings, handwritten annotations, and a presidential signature.
