Hello,
My name is Dharmendra Chakrasali, and I am the webmaster for www.kulal.com .
It was such a pleasure to come across your website www.prajapati-samaj.ca,
it was absolutely by blind luck I happened to browse prajapati.org.uk and then
got a link to your website.
Kulals are "Kumbhars" from south India. We both belong to the same
caste.
I had put up kulal.com a couple of years ago and slowly we are getting popular
among our people here.
I was wondering if I could set up links to your website from ours. It would be
amazing to have our two peoples come together, at least on the Internet.
I am very thrilled at the prospects of our alliance.
Awaiting your replies.
With best regards,
Dharmendra Chakrasali

Please spread the word about Kulal.com to all fellow Kulals.

Namaste Dharmendra:
My name is champak mistry and I am a volunteer leader for the Education Program and Website Development for Prajaapati Vishva Aashram Foundation
(PVAF). You reached us through PVAF web site www.prajapati-samaj.ca
I feel very excited at reading your email below as one of the primary mandate of PVAF is to bring all prajaapatio in the world on a single
platform for brotherhood and walk jointly towards communal prosperity. We have had quite a few contacts from various prajaapati samaaj in
India.
I have quickly browsed through www.kulal.com and I will be visiting the site again to have a full understanding. I must congratulate you and
your team members for taking this pro-active initiative and putting in continual efforts for the last 2 years to put up the wonderful web site
and make it steadily grow with participation of your community members in various parts of south India up to mumbai.
As you may be aware, prajaapati tribe consists of basically kumbhaar and suthaar lineages. Most of the people visiting PVAF web site originate in
southern gujaraat from around surat to valsaad area. We have had contact with prajaapatio in hariyaanaa state and sauraashtra.
Please do link the PVAF site to your web site and please do encourage your membership to join hands with PVAF membership. On behalf of PVAF
Board I can say that PVAF's mandate will be well served to form alliance with kulal community. I am copying this message to all PVAF Board
members for their information and active contact with kulal community in days to come.
PVAF organization and web site is about 4 years old now and we are presently focusing on drawing all prajaapatio in the world on a common
platform through education which will bring all of us prosperity. We are basically a cyberspace organization legally registered in Alberta,
Canada with representatives in India, UK, Canada, USA and other places where prajaapatio have made contacts with PVAF.
This is a quick response to you. I will contact you with more information about PVAF and its members and about myself soon. In the
meanwhile please feel free to tell us more about yourself and your community and any thoughts you may have on how we can establish
alliance. These are the times without borders with the help of IT and
its Internet. Nothing other than our own selves should stop us having a very vibrant alliance to brotherhood and prosperity.
Namaskaar and waiting for your response......

Subject: RE: PVAF: Welcome to Kulal from PVAF
Dear Mr. Mistry,
Namaskara. Thank you so much for your mail. It was quite refreshing to know how far up the ladder Prajapatis have reached in Canada and the UK. Also hats off to your work on the website. Very professional work indeed..
Kulals are "kumbhars" from Mangalore area in Karnataka. We are a small community in relation to other communities this region.
Kulal.com was primarily started to have a comprehensive database of contact addresses, phone numbers of all Kulals around the globe. Further developments led to a Bulletin Board, Discussion forums, Matrimonial sections strictly for the Kulal community, etc. Introduction of free consultancy with Doctors, Lawyers, Engineers etc., was another step. We are still working on this. We also provide Free Email on Kulal.com.
Kulal.com is not a charitable organization of any sort. We do not accept any donations, nor do we charge a fee for our services.
Kulal.com's main intent was to bring all Kulals together on a common platform. We are spread out all over the country and the world, and we needed some kind of a place where we could all meet.
On the ground and social front, although some of our people are above poverty line and doing well, there is a sizable amount of families who fall below this region. For that reason we have Kulal Sanghas (Social Service Organisations), which do a lot of community service. Donations given by the members help them do the good work. In addition the sanghas also help in bringing the community together by arranging sports meets, picnics, plays etc. There are many Kulal Sanghas in different parts of Karnataka, Kerala and Maharashtra.
Kulals also have a strong interaction with people belonging to same community hailing from other parts of Karnataka. The community people arising from other parts of Karnataka call themselves as " Kumbaras ". They too have their own social service wings etc.
Please do visit our site and browse around. Although recently we have been having a lot of hits and data transfers on the website, we sometimes exceed our daily quota of bandwidth and the website night stop responding..... :-( This is only a minor glitch and will be corrected in a matter of a few days.
So coming to our alliance topic. As both PVAF and Kulal.com's ideology are the same, i.e., bringing our people together, we would promote your websites full fledge on kulal.com and request our people to take active part in it. In return we would also expect you to link to our website from yours. We hope to see Prajapatis from different walks of life, actively taking part in our in our discussion forums, posting articles, etc. This kind of interaction I feel will not only bring our peoples together but also will open our minds to suggestions and ideas which will lead our community to prosperity.
I will be announcing about PRAJAPATI-SAMAJ.CA in our website in a day or two. I will also be emailing all the people on our mailing list about it.
To start with, we will have a link from the front page to your website. Soon we should come out with something more interactive, than just links. We should work on it... sometime in the future....
I have taken the liberty to CC this mail to the list of people you have CC'd. I hope that is ok.
With best regards,
Dharmendra Chakrasali
