Author’s afternoon and MoU with WFUNA

With Kiran Mehra Kerpelman, Bonian Gulmohammadi and H M Bangur.

Yesterday turned out to be a very busy day. I had a meeting in the morning with Bonian Gulmohammadi, Secretary General, World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA) and Laura – the WFUNA team from New York – who were in city on my invitation.

At 4 pm the third edition of Author’s Afternoon was there at The Chambers, Taj Bengal.

This time the guest was Sangeeta Bahadur (picure).

Sangeeta is the director of the Nehru Centre in London and she made her literary debut with her book Jaal – which is the first part of a planned trilogy. After the author’s afternoon an MoU was signed between Education for All (EFA) and WFUNA. Later in the evening I hosted a dinner for the diplomats and the Honorary Consuls at the The Taj Bengal Hotel to meet and greet Kiran Mehra Kerpelman, director, United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) for India and Bhutan.
