Respected President and My dear Comrades,

With a RED salute and with Green Memories of his ideologies I place this annual report from 20/10/08 to 31/09/09 for evaluation and constructive criticism please.
Let us join with the people of AP, suffered a severe jolt, grieved inconsolably over the tragic death of their beloved Chief Minister Dr.Y.S.Rajsekhara Reddy. As Chief Minister rather a Leader he threw himself into development programmes that directly touched the lives of the poor with passion that is uncommon. We mourn.
Soon after this executive assumed charge in the Patna CBGM on 19th & 20th Oct 2008, I have clearly outlined that this executive will not to be fully Secretary oriented, instead it will be a team oriented under the captaincy of Com.P.K.DAS. CEC Members and the GSs will be the members of the team and I will be the coordinator of this team. I am the firm believer of collective bargaining and Team building. I may state that team work is a cohesive approach for achieving Associations goals as well as individual satisfaction.
