Message from JAINA, VRG Chair,
Shri Pravin C. Shah
"I am sincerely happy to acknowledge that after pursuant of Federation of Jain Association In North America (JAINA), and World Jain Confederation (WIC) Department of Posts, Government of India is to issue Commemorative Stamp with first day cover, brochure and a special cancellation in memory of Great Jain Scholar, Humanitarian, Patriot and Reformer Shri Virchand Raghavji Gandhi on 8th November
2009, which is really like a dream come true. We really wish success of WJC & JAINA alliance for Shri VRG Memorial Museum at Mahuva, Gujarat. We appeal to our Community worldwide to help us raise awareness about VRG who could not live long enough to accomplish more to our community because of his premature untimely death. We call upon more educational organizations and Jain Organizations worldwide to commemorate the VRG's birth anniversary with lectures, seminars, symposia, essay competitions and debates for people of different ages and even an exhibition on life and work can be an innovative idea. And I am very happy to acknowledge that on eve of Stamp release our two India, JAINA VRG committee members Dr. Bipinbhai & Smt. Pritiben at their personal level under banner of Jain Academy education research centre are coming up with world class coffee table Book on VRG as on today i.e. Gandhi before Gandhi."
