Dear Colleagues,

I wish you and your family a very Happy and Prosperous New Year and academically and socially fruitful year 2020.

I wish to profusely thank the members of my Pediatric Fraternity and well-wishers for having electing me unanimously as the President of Indian Academy of Pediatrics for the year 2020. I assure you that it will be my pleasure and delight to live up to your expectations in all my endeavour.

As you are aware, Pedicon 2020 is scheduled to be held from January 9 – 12, 2020 at Indore.  I will be installed as the President of IAP ceremoniously at the inaugural function of the Pedicon to be held on 9th January 2020 from 5.30 pm onwards.

On behalf of the Executive Board and the Organising Team of the Pedicon and myself, I invite you to grace this occasion by your august presence and shower your blessing for the success of the conference in terms of scientific, social, and cultural feast.

Happy New Year!

I look forward to welcome you at Indore
