Shri Charotar Vaishya Suthar Bandhu Samaj, Vadodara was established on 26th January 1993 in Vadodara. The prime moto behind the foundation of this organization was to bring all the Charotar Vaishya Suthar Community members residing in Vadodara City and the District, on a common platform, so that each member may ramain in touch with the other. This may also promote love, affection and brotherhood among the community members, creating a sense of responsibility towards the community members and feelings to help each other in all kind of situations.
