A need was strongly felt to bring
all the Members of Vysya Community on to a common platform and to enable them to
exchange their ideas and views and also to felicitate Arya Vysyas on those days
who were qualified as IAS, Doctors, Engineers & Lawyers and those who visited
Foreign Countries. With this modest Aim and Objective the FIRST VASAVI CLUB was
started in the year 1961 on 1st October with Eleven members by Late Sri Kalvakuntla
Chandrasena Gupta, Freedom Fighter (K.C.Gupta) who could be regarded as not just
the Founder but also the “Father of Vasavi Movement”.
Entering into the Field of Service :
In the year 1971, one more era started in Vasavi Club by undertaking Service Projects
like Pulse Polio, Educational Assistance and providing Sewing Machines
& Wet Grinders to poor ladies for their livelihood, Scholarships,Distribution
of Books to Schools under the Leadership of Vn. Veloor Lingaiah Gupta at Hyderabad.
Later on, the activities of our Association had increased manifold to Fellowship,
Leadership, Personality Development, Social Service and Educational Activities etc....
Extension : With a view to provide
a common platform for all Vysyas nationwide it was decided to extend Vasavi clubs
in other places.In the period between 1976 - 92 about 6 clubs were extended. Vasavi
Club Warangal was the first club extended under the leadership of Vn.Crown*KCGF
Salike Prakash Rao. Besides extension of New clubs, the co-ordination of the activities
of all the Vasavi Clubs at various places was felt very much important. Then a Committee
was formed in the year 1992-93 under the leadership of
Vn.3*KCGF Moosthiala Shanker
and the result was formation of All India Association of Vasavi Clubs on
3rd. January, 1993.
From National to International Association of Vasavi Clubs :
Keeping the extensions of Clubs Overseas it was
resolved to transform our Association from All India Association of Vasavi Clubs
to International Association of Vasavi Clubs. Our Association transformed to International
Association of Vasavi Clubs with effect from 1st. April, 2007.
