About 2nd innings
2ND innings (SENIOR CITIZEN CLUB), 1289 SEC.K, ASHIYANA, LUCKNOW
FOUNDER OF THIS GROUP:
CA Atul Dubey is neither a Senior Citizen nor any retired professional. Contrary to this hypothesis CA Atul Dubey is an energetic Young Gentleman in mid fifties having a standing of almost 3-decade roaring practice as a very successful Chartered Accountant. His success during a short span of 25-30 years is astonishing and still a dream for other practicing CA’s of almost similar standing.
But inspiration of his beloved father Late Ram Swaroop Dubey moved CA ATUL DUBEY from the core of heart and leaving behind his roaring practice of a successful CA now he has whole heartedly devoted his financial means, full personal attention, and all other infra structure under his command (which is worth following for a practicing professional) for the success and growth of 2ND INNINGS AND ITS FUTURE. Now his mission is no more financial and professional success but social service through the success and growth of his beloved mission 2ND INNINGS-SENIOR CITIZEN CLUB
