The Trustees and the managing committee of the Zoroastrian Trust Funds of Europe are delighted to send heartiest congratulations to this outstanding son of our community - Karan Bilimoria - on his elevation to the House of Lords.
We make this announcement with great pride and a prayer of gratitude to Ahura Mazda.
Karan becomes the first Zoroastrian in history to enter the House of Lords.
He follows the distinguished footsteps of the great Zoroastrians of yesteryear - Dadabhoy Naoroji, Sir Muncherjee Bhownaggarree and Comrade Shapurji Saklatvala who were the first MPs of Asian descent to sit in the House of Commons.
Karan has never been too busy to participate in the activities of our Anjuman. His kind and generous nature have always been to the fore in all his dealings with the community. Despite his high public profile, Karan has always made time for social and community work.
Every Zoroastrian will feel proud today at this well deserved recognition. We must also thank Her Majesty’s Government on their judicious and astute choice.
We send our heartiest congratulations to Karan and Heather and their young family and all our many friends at COBRA Beer.
Everyone at WZCC UK will particularly proud that our founder Chairman will now be able to represent the cause of Entrepreneurship at the highest level in the House of Lords.
May Ahura Mazda always bless Karan in his family, business and social life. We are sure The Best is Yet to Come.
Paurushasp Jila,
Greater London, UK
On behalf of the Managing Committe and Trustees,
