Executive Committee

President

Mahendrabhai Santokbhai Patel

Mahendrabhai, a semi-retired postmaster, joined KS UK in 1986 as a member, and was soon after appointed the president. After many years of hard work and dedication Mahendrabhai can reflect on the working of KS UK and agree that we have come a long way since its establishment in 1979. Mahendrabhai’s vision and dream, which is shared by most of his office is to eventually have their own hall for functions and events in London, as well as off course continuing to grow KS UK not only within this country but making it well recognised all over the world. In his spare time Mahendrabhai is well known to be a cricket fanatic (which Indian isn’t?) and loves not only to watch the sport but also play too on the odd occasion. He also urges the youth of Karamsad to support him and his work to help keep the roots of our culture intact – and not let them fade with the years to come. He always says ‘lets look forwards and upwards!
