My heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family and friends N.P.Bali G N SRIDHARAN PATRON WRITES: I have been informed by our senior & veteran activist at Mumbai Shri U J Nerurkar that Shri MG Diwan (former chairman)passed away early this morning (27/12)            I have had a number of opportunities in discussing the problems of class 1 officers both in service and retirement and what struck me most was that he was candid about his views.
