[Chapter-delegates] Resignation from the Position of Vice President

[Raymond Mamattah]

Hello Sheikh and other chapter delegates,

I just did a quick check and I realised you were elected on 15th August 2024
<https://isocindiabengaluru.org/wp/2024/08/29/sheikh-raashid-javid-elected-new-chapter-vice-president/>
and you took office on 1st September.  I also realised inSIG 2024 is taking
place today <https://insig.in/program-agenda-for-insig-2024/> till 3rd
October 2024.

Is there a way ISOC Bengaluru could address the concerns of Sheikh to put
this issue to bed.  Furthermore, as a Vice Chair, what are the defined
roles for this position? Has he been really denied what he is entitled to
as a Vice President, if so could this be addressed and corrections made.

Regards,
Raymond Mamattah
