AANI Structure

The Alumni Association of the National Institute (AANI) is administered through the Annual General Meeting, National Executive Committee (NEC), Standing Committees, and Chapter Executive Committees. It initially operated in six zones, later expanded to ten for more effective coordination, and from 2003 evolved into twenty-seven state chapters. Zone Chairpersons sit on the NEC, which is elected every two years and comprises the President, key executive officers, and all Chapter Chairpersons. The Association’s work is supported by sixteen functional committees along with two advisory bodies: a seven-member Board of Patrons and a seven-member Heritage Council.
