Misuse Of Trust Funds

ByPT Reporter

Dear Editor,

I would like to bring a serious issue before the Community. The Karani Agiary at Cusrow Baug has been collecting funds for the last several years for the betterment of the poor and religious matters.
Hence, I read with shock in the Jam-e-Jamshed issue of July 10, 2016 that they along with Jam-e-Jamshed arranged a youth event called ‘Bawas Love To Party’ at the Radio Club on 25th June, 2016. It is said that nearly ‘200’ Parsi youngsters came together for a meaningful evening (actually, only 100 came). If the Trust funds are used on affluent youngsters for eating, drinking and dancing, does it make it a meaningful evening?
The Karani Agairy Funds and the Kookadaru Trust Funds are collected for a serious purpose. In fact, one of the Trustees of these funds, who was previously sacked as treasurer of the Cusrow Baug league as he could not account for a sum of Rs. 6 lacs, also manages the Karani Agiary Funds, the Kookadaru Trust and is very close to Jam-e-Jamshed. God help the Parsi community!
