Dear Sir/Madam

Kindly accept my heartiest greetings for the season.
News of Indian foreign reserves crossing $100 billon is making news
everywhere. An expert in economy can best asses what it means to the health of the
National economy but feel good factor it has generated is definitely going to help
India and Indians everywhere. Indic studies are no exception to it. It has been
largely accepted that Indian History and Cultural studies need fresh assessments
based on recent biological dating techniques and free of Colonial bias and Euro
centrism. This is not a simple task. I am sure Indian scholars would take this challenge seriously.
Institute's role is to assist Indic researcher in getting resources for his study.
We are enriching our library every year by adding new books and Journals. We
also have achieved total computerization of our library data and it is available now
on our web site http://www.orientalthane.com
For last 22 years we have been giving you calendar of events well in advance.
This is to help you plan your participation in the events of your choice. Your support
and co-operation to the activities of the Institute will be an encouragement to us.
Thanking you,

With warm regards.

Yours Sincerely

(Dr. V. V. Bedekar)
