We are happy to announce that on 18 June 2016 Maher children elected the new ministers for the Maher Parliament for the new academic year 2016-17 at Vadhu Bk, Pune. Like every year, the children this year also showed great interest in the election. The meeting began with a review of the work of the existing minister. After Sister Lucy (Founder and Director of Maher) explained the nature of responsibilities of a minister, the willing members of the audience were asked to enter the election. 380 children took part in the election and with their voting they elected the ministers of Maher among them. Those elected were assigned their portfolios. The new Maher Council of Ministers with their portfolios is as follows:\r\n
