Milestones
The data on births, marriages and deaths has been compiled from information supplied by various newsletters and anjumans in India and abroad, courts and hospitals. This information is not always complete or consistent: we are unable to carry data from areas where the anjumans do not furnish the particulars; the birth figures for Bombay are supplied by one hospital — births in suburban hospitals and private nursing homes are not included unless individuals send us information together with a copy of the birth certificate. There may be an inadvertent repetition of names in the marriage list when a civil marriage precedes a religious ceremony. In the break-up of deaths according to illnesses, especially of the elderly, death is often due to a combination of several diseases.

CORRECTION
In the Milestones colum of January 21, 2016 Parsiana had published a birth announcement of a boy being born to Vanita and Rayomand Irani on December 6, 2015. Their correct surname should read as Pavri. Parsiana regrets the error.
