Alas, soon after the exhibition the society suffered the tragic loss in the sad demise of two of its most active members i.e. M/s Iftikhar A. Kazi and Gulzar Ahmad Chudary who happened to be the Chairman of the just concluded exhibition. In quick succession the society decided to honor them by dedicating the next exhibition to their memory.
