The Conference began with a challenging address of welccme by Deaj

he emphasized jthat we have too often "confused God arid religion with
the often inadequate^sometimes c ounter-produoti vH s^jmetimes outdate<^'

Dear Readers,
As you are probably aware, I have put in my candidature for the
Trusteeship of the Bombay Parsi Punchayet in the place rendered vacant
by the sad, untimely and tragic death of the late Mr. Maneck Mistry.
For those of you who have a vote, my humble request to you is to
vote for me. For those of you who have not got a vote, I claim your
moral support and blessings. It is but meet and proper at a time like
this to acquaint you with who I am, what my views on Parsi Communal
problems are, and what I am prepared to do for my community.
From my father ’s side I am the head of the Byramjee Jeejeebhoy
family. From my mother ’s side, I am a descendant of the Sir Jamsetjee
Jeejeebhoy family. I say humbly that looking to my family background from
both my parents who have left great works of charity behind them, doing
charity work is to me a sacred tradition. I have created two Charitable Trusts
myself, namely, “Byramjee Jeejeebhoy Charitable Trust ” and “Jeejeebhoy
Charities ” in both of which I am Chairman and Trustee. For the 25 years
or very nearly so, I have been connected with the Sir Jamshetjee Jee
jeebhoy group of charities, the Petit group of charities, the Jeejeebhoy
Dadabhoy Trust Fund, and the Byramjee Jeejeebhoy Parsi Charitable
Institution as Trustee and in the last two of which I am also Chairman.
Further, I am connected with the Framji Cawasjee Institute, and I am
a founder Trustee of the Indian Cancer Society.
My views on communal subjects naturally lean on the side of ortho
doxy but that should not mislead my readers into thinking that I am a
bigot or a ritualistic. I am amenable to reason and open to conviction
at any time. However, I do not subscribe to the views of radicals who
think that all change is progress.
Having come in daily contact with the needs and aspirations of the
poor of our community as well as their acute problems, I am very con
scious of the fact that the most pressing of their problems today
is that of housing and accommodation. This problem is getting
more and more acute resulting in the drain of Parsees from this country
and falling birth-rate. I have come personally in contact with young
men and women of eligible age who have remained unmarried only due
to lack of accommodation. If steps are not taken to combat this most
urgent and crying need in the community in time we are in danger of
losing our identity and the Parsi way of life. Under the present circum
stances, we are losing much of our brain power which is emigrating abroad
to seek its fortune in foreign surroundings and circiunstances. I would,
therefore, if elected, put this problem as priority number one. With this
problem in my mind it is my intention to donate sufficient land where
a colony for low-priced housing can be brought into being. God willing,
I will put through this scheme in any case whether I am elected or not.
But, if elected, I will have the added advantage of the organisational
backing and support of the biggest Charity institution of our community,
the Parsi Punchayet.
The problem of education would be the ne^ on my priority list. I
want every single Parsee child whether male or female to have the
benefit of the best education with the least expense —education with a
religious bias.
Finally I should like to state that by God ’s grace I am in a position,
if elected, to devote considerable time and attention every day to carry
through the duties that will fall upon me.
Yours Faithfully,
Nanabhoy Byramjee Jeejeebhoy-4
