Dear Sefians,
Greetings on Republic Day!
Today is also the twentieth anniversary of the Bhuj Earthquake- the day which changed the course of earthquake engineering in India. Today is also the coming of age of SEFI. SEFI turns eighteen today and has earned the driving license to take India into a brighter and safer habitat.
This year we have reached two milestones. From a paltry handful of members on January 26, 2003, we have reached, on this date, the "grand silver" number- We are now over 25,000 SEFIans- and counting. And, most importantly, we did it our way!! All SEFIANs are equal and have an equal voice.
We also realised that SEFI needs to be infused with young blood. To that effect, SEFI has inducted a new Trustee, Dr Jaswant Arlekar. Some of you may know him already. He straddles both fields - he is a practising structural consultant in Mumbai and is a well-respected educationist. We are so happy to welcome our youngest Trustee on board.
We have some exciting surprises in store for you this year. Big Ones. Watch this space!
warmly,
Alpa Sheth

Dear Er. Alpa Sheth , and Dr. Subramanian ,
A very Happy REPUBLIC DAY .
For us Structural Engineers this day is also a reminder of BHUJ EARTHQUAKE in Gujarat . Some 20,000 lives were lost.
We have no choice but to follow diligently lessons leaned from that earthquake and its application on our profession . Question is us (Structural Engineers) and Public Safety . We can go to GSDMA site and get the all help we can get before we put up a next High Rise Building in Ahmedabad, Vadodara and Rajkot .
Regards.
Vasudeo Pandya P.E.
Structural Engineer
