The Allahabad Computer dealers association conducted its annual election for the posts of president, VP, secretary, treasurer
and joint secretary. Manish Mehrotra from Tritech Enterprises has been elected as the president of the
association for the third time. 

The 100 people strong association went in for polls and more than 70 people went out to cast their votes, 40 of them opted
for Manish. The post of VP went to Shiv Shankar Singh of Stek Systems, Sidharth Sharma
of Konarka was elected as the secretary, while the other posts went to Deepak Agarwal of Matrix Systems as treasurer and DR Chopra from Sys Care as
joint secretary. Five members were also elected as executive body members of the association.

Sharing his views on the focus for coming year, Mehrotra explained that unstable prices in the market still dog the
profit-making opportunities for channels and this would be an area of focus for the association.
"Moving forward we would be channeling our efforts to focus on stabilizing our pricing policy. We are going to come out with a combined price list for
assembled as well as branded products. This list will be updated on a daily basis if there is a need to do so," he added.

The association will also be conducting 'talk sessions' by industry gurus to deliver their experience and knowledge about the
industry. "We would engage ourselves to organize various talk sessions involving various eminent people
from the society and industry to enlighten association members. Here we would be addressing issues like cost-cutting or cyber laws," Mehrotra added.
