Dear Sharadbhai
NAVNAT VANIK ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM
ESTABLISHED 1970
REGISTERED CHARITY No. 288167.
Jai Jinendra
It gives me great pleasure to hear that Jain Samaj Europe is celebrating the completion of 10 years since the Pratistha Mahotsav which took place in July 1988 when the most holy images were installed in the Jain temple.
During these 10 years the Jain community in the United Kingdom has benefited a lot from the Jain temple.
It is very hard to build a temple but it is even harder to maintain it and ensure continual benefit to the community. Your past and present committee have worked very hard to achieve this.
Yours Sincerely
£ Bat Rai
Subhash Bakhai.

Dear Shri Sharadbhai,
It is with great pleasure, I send this message of congratulations to the office bearers of Jain Samaj Europe. I was fortunate to take an active part in the Pratishtha Ceremony ten years ago in July 1988. During this ten years the Jain Centre has made its name in the City of Leicester and it is a tourist attraction as well. Jain Centre has also contributed in spreading the ideals of nonviolence and peace.

Shri Sharad Bakhai President
Jain Samaj Europe
Dear Sharadbhai,
It is my great pleasure to congratulate every one at Jain Samaj Europe on this great occasion of its 10th anniversary of Pratishtha ceremony in the Jain Centre. I am sure that all the organisations affiliated with the Council will join me in doing so.
The vision of future perceived by the trustees, past presidents and yourself as the current President has made this organisation one of the most active in propagating Jain principles. This has always been appreciated by Jains, here and abroad.
This is the Silver Jubilee year of the organisation and I am proud to be associated with it from its beginning. May the Shashan devta and Padmavatidevi bless it to serve Jain religion for many more years to come.
Yours sincerely,
