Chief guest Surjit Kaur lauded the activities of the outgoing office-bearers and congratulated the newly installed chairman and her team.
She also reminded the Inner Wheel members of their founder Margarette Golding who set up the first Inner Wheel Club in Manchester, United Kingdom, because she and others like her realised that a woman’s place is not just inside the domestic walls.
