A new chairman for ARZ

Poona’s Dr Keki B. Grant, a trustee of the Association for Revival of Zoroastrianism (ARZ), was unanimously appointed chairman at a meeting of its board of trustees held on January 10, 2008. The eminent doctor takes over the baton from Kerssie N. Wadia who stepped down on completion of his three-year term as chairman.

On February 2, 2008, ARZ will, jointly with Association of Inter Married Zoroastrians (AIMZ), host a talk by Ervad (Dr) Kersey Antia, eminent religious scholar from the USA. Antia will speak on "Acceptance in Zoroastrianism.” This will be followed by the premiere of the film Crisis in faith: Zoroastrians today directed by Tenaz Dubash, also from the USA. The program, to be held at the Y. B. Chavan Centre Auditorium in Bombay, from 6.30 pm, is open to all.
