General Mohyal Sabha :Dedicated to the Community
Four Decade of Excellence and Dedicated Service to the Community
After partition GMS first shifted to Amritsar in 1947 and then to Delhi
in 1955. The first three decades were almost spent in hibernation due to lack
of resources. During the last four decades, GMS has made big strides in various
fields. Today, the Community has risen and its members have come closer to each
other, as never before, and the Mohyali flag is aflutter in all parts of the
country. This development clearly establishes the fact that Mohyals have
arrived in strength, are an integrated community and their identity is intact
and vibrant. Besides building of Ashrams, Bhawans and Institutions and creating
financial resources, the credibility of the GMS has never been as high as
today. GMS is rightly proud of its achievements over the last four decades.
Cash in hand The liquid assests of
the GMS have increased from Rs 22,391/ as on 01 Oct 78 to Rs. 2,79,46,359/- as
on 31 Dec 2016.
Trusts There were a total of
31 trusts as on 1 Oct 1978 for a total value of Rs.2,26,634/ -. Currently,
there are 2928 individual trusts and
their value is Rs.7,61,96,097/- as on 31 Dec 2016. There are two types of
trusts, ones opened by the GMS and the others opened by individuals. The first category includes trusts like (i)
GMS Educational Benevolent Fund Trust Account, established in 2009 with seed
money of Rs. 1,00,00,000/- (ii) GMS Mohyal Mitter Trust Account (Rs. 7,00,000/)
and GMS Widow Fund Trust (Rs.3,00,000/), a total of Rs. 1,10,00,000/. The
latter two trusts have been opened to augment the respective two funds. The
individual trusts are also of two types (i) Langar Fund Trusts for Haridwar and
Vrindavan Ashrams (ii) other individual
trusts. As on 31 Dec 2016, there were a total of 2402 Langar Fund Trusts; 1910
for Haridwar and 492 for Vrindavan. Each such trust is for Rs.11,000/-, so the
total value of Langar Fund Trusts works out to Rs. 2,64,22,000/- The balance
trust money of Rs. 4,97,74,097/- is for 526 individual trusts .
Real Estate Before Partition of the country, GMS
owned a Student's Hostel (Mohyal Ashram Lahore), built on an area of three
Kanals. After partition, efforts were made by the Sabha to get
compensation/claim for this property left in Pakistan. However, the policy of
the Govt. of India, at that time, was not to entertain any institutional
claims. G.M.S. has established the
following properties, dedicated to the service of the Community:
