My Dear Beloved Students,



“The true value of independence in realized through education, as knowledge empowers a nation.”- Dr. B.R. Ambedkar



Wishing everyone a happy 77th Independence Day and congratulating every Indian on the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the south pole of the Moon.



During the 77th Independence Day celebration, our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi announced that India is among the top three economies in the last five years and I would like to add upon that without the constant efforts of us Chartered Accountants, it would have not been successful. And as I always say that we all must embrace that ‘I am the I of ICAI’.



The period from 16th July to this day has been another exiting time for EICASA with an innumerable list of events:



Half Day Seminar on How to Choose Right Firm for Articleship on 22nd July 2023 with speakers like CA. Niraj Agarwal, CA. Vivek Agarwal, CA. Sanjib and  CA. Yugantar Gupta. A number of students turned out for the programme.



EICASA - AGM was held on 29th July 2023. The students elected will form the new Managing Committee of EICASA for the year 2023 – 24. We wish them all success.  



Branch Level Talent Search Debate and Elocution Contest 2023 conducted by the SSEB on 10th August 2023 which had a great response from the students. The Debate Contest was enlightened to have CA. Ruchi Lakhotia, CA. Devarshi Bhuwalka & CA. Rishita Das as the panel of judges while Mr. Suman Bagchi conducted the Quiz Competition.



Independence Day celebration today witnessed a large number of students present at the time of the hoisting of the National Flag. This was followed by a themed event, 'India @2047: Role of CAs, where the students were given a special platform to showcase their creativity in a 10 minute slot through PPTs, Songs and Recitation.



 



The upcoming lineup of EICASA also mark some glorifying events:

Nagpal, Director BOS (Academic), ICAI discussing the crucial factors of the new syllabus as introduced by the Institute and in the same programme, a slew of Rank Holders will be sharing their experiences on how they graciously made it to become Chartered Accountants.



Industrial Visit to Titagarh Rail Systems Ltd. in Hindmotor is on 29th August 2023 where the students will be having a real time experience in regard to production process in a factory and the related technical knowledge from the industry persons. Moreover, I am happy to announce that this kind of Industrial Visit will be taking place for the first time ever! I am grateful to CA Raj Lakhotia who agreed to organise the same.



Guru Tujhe Salam, a cultural event will be organized on 5th September 2023 to celebrate the enlightened eve of Teacher’s Day where students will be participating and performing to convey their gratitude and thankfulness to the faculties of EIRC-ICAI who tirelessly teaches the students attending the Information Technology and Orientation courses throughout the year.

All these events were successful only because of the efforts and support of the members of EICASA, Regional Council Members and the official team of EIRC-ICAI. I convey my warm regards to every participant and I am thankful to everyone who contributed to the events to make them a gainful and successful one.



As Browning said Petty Done, Vast Undone, - We can feel that there is many more to be done for our beloved students and it is a continuous process where there should be no ceasefire.



TEAM EICASA and all its imaginations and initiatives are the manifestation and resultant of our basic philosophy of never-say-die attitude which stems from the fact that alone we can walk, together we can win defeating our meaner selves. Hence, do not subdued by the howling of time, rather tame the time and harvest every benefit.



Signing off just to get back to you with more resources for the days to come.



With warm regards,



CA. Sanjib Sanghi,

Chairman, EICASA of EIRC, ICAI (2023-24)
