[Iyrp-gcg] Welcoming new Chair of SA-RISG

[Igshaan Samuels]

Dear Dr Sadana

I echo the words of Maryam but saying thank you so much for what you have
done for the IYRP thus far and I am sure that you will still contribute
immensely to achieving the goals of the IYRP. We are happy that you will
still be an active member of the South Asia RISG.

Arun, congratulations on becoming the South Asia RISG chair and I am
looking forward to working with you.

KInd regards
Igshaan Samuels
