Issues To Ponder Dear Readers, Election to Bombay Parsi Panchayat is soon approaching to elect just one member of the Board of Trustees. And so it is time for mudslinging, one-up-manship and character assassination galore. People stoop to any level to bring down a fellow candidate. I would like to take this opportunity to appraise […]

A mere technical issue could have been solved internally, instead it was dragged into the courtroom for an endless period of time wasting precision time and money. It is election time again.
