Polio is eradicated in all countries in the world except India,
Pakistan, Afganistan, Nigeria where it is still endemic. Rotarian of
India & Govt. of India have toiled hard for the last 15 years. We have
been able to reduce the incidence of Polio by 95 % yet the last 5 % is
posing a challenge to us. We need to recommit ourselves with more
vigour to see the last of Polio. The polio summit organized by the
districts in Western India, will help us to remotivate Rotarians for
this historical cause. DG Rtn. Vinay Kulkarni Governor of the host
district & self urge all Rotarians to attend the summit in large
numbers. Your presence will motivate all the Rotarians.
I once again invite you to Pune on 18th Nov.

Member, India National Polio Plus Committee
