HISTORY OF NAIR WELFARE ASSOCIATION, THANE

The Nair welfare Association, Thane, was founded at a meeting on 10th November, 1996 at Shri S J Pillai's house in Kishan Nagar, Thane. The meeting was attended by 26 persons of the Nair Community and was chaired by Shri U R Menon. They chose an adhoc committee consisting of 14 members with Shri K N Rajan Pillai as its President and Shri K V Radhakrishnan as its General Secretary. The objective of its formation was to be in the service of the community and work for the welfare of its members and do charitable activities for the benefit of the general public.

The hard work put forward by the adhoc committee members and the like minded members of the community started bearing fruits. They could enroll 122 members before 26th January, 1997, when the inaugural function took place at Kishan Nagar Bala Vidya Mandir Auditorium at the hands of Prof Raghunath, Principal, WEES' English High School. In this inaugural function, the first managing committee was elected for a period of 2 years with 15 members. Shri K N Rajan Pillai and Shri K V Radhakrishnan were elected as the President and General Secretary respectively.

However soon, Shri K V Radhakrishnan moved out of India and was replaced with Shri R Vijayan Plllai. In the same year the Association was registered under Societies Registration Act, 1860, and The Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950. During this period, the Association (with the help of members and well-wishers) acquired a 400 sq. feet office premises at Kishan Nagar - 2. On 26th January 1998, the Association celebrated its first Annual Day and Family get-together in the TSSIA Auditorium, Wagle Estate. The annual day function was graced with distinguished guests and well-wishers like Shri Lion Kumaran Nair and Prof. Raghunath. Thereafter the Association is regularly celebrating its Annual Day and Family get-together on 26th January and Annual General Meeting on 15th August every year.
