Re: Theos-World Anand's message to Betty Bland about disenfranchisement

In India, condition of Theosophy is much better than most of the other
countries. Brotherhood also is much greater in India. Indian Section
provides strength to the Theosophical Society, when other National
Sections are failing.
Present and future of TS depends greatly on Indian Section. I hope
General Council will have representation proportionate to the
membership of the country, so that India will be able to lead the TS
and promote Theosophy.
TS throughout world will be stronger if Indian Section leads with
proportionate representation in the General Council.
