Membership Information – Abroad

Welcoming  NRIs and Bharat Vanshis

Parishad welcomes  NRIs and Bharat Vanshis to be  part of selfless and dedicated band of social spirited persons engaged in the regeneration of India. Several NRIs and Bharat Vanshis, who have established a mark in socio-economic field of their adopted land through years of sincere, honest and hard work have been lately coming forward to take part in the regeneration of India enthusiastically through Parishad because of this organisation’s dedication and absolutely transparent financial practices. Parishad is thus eager to expand its work among the Indians settled abroad in a big way, so that Bhartiya Achar, Bhartiya Vichar and Bhartiya Sanskar (Indian ethos, views and traditions) remain alive in their hearts and their love for the native land, whose shores they or their ancestors left a long time back, does not die down or even becomes covered with ashes of the thoughts and culture of the land of their adoption.
