Indian Community Benevolent Forum

Our History

In the year 1984, few prominent Indian businessmen and Indian community leaders living in Qatar have come together and undertaken the noble task of finding succor and solace to the underprivileged Indians in distress due to any unforeseen circumstances in Qatar. Thus 28 years back, the Indian Community Benevolent Forum was formed with Late Mulchand Assandas Kanjani as the founder President under the aegis of the Indian Embassy.
