As the Vice President of Bharat, I am the man in the shadows. I do
things that need to be done to keep Bharat's yearly events rolling.
While I may not be in the limelight, it does not mean I will be hard
to find. Apparently the right people all seem to find me. So come up
and say Hi!!

I have been somewhat disappointed by the efforts of sports reps in the past.
I believe we have the network to organise a few events, that will hopefully
become annual. I hope to organise a few sporting such as 6-a-side cricket, 3-0n-3 basketball and various other sports. This will be easier since I am good friends with the sports reps from UNSW, USyd and Mac.

Since it's my final year at UTS *touchwood*, I really wanted to be a part of Bharat. Bharat has never had a webpage - correction, a webpage that has been known. Due to this, not many people out there know that Bharat exists. The purpose of this webpage is to not only let people know about Bharat, but also to provide them with information about current events. If you have any suggestions or comments regarding the webpage, please feel free to email me with them. Have a good year.
