Why become a member of the BCS?

The Bombay Catholic Sabha has played a leading role whenever Christians are under attack or their rights under threat. The Sabha spearheaded the action to protect heritage Crosses, support people of Uttan & Gorai against the Special Economic Zone, people of Sahar against Airport expansion, stood up against demands of people with political connections who harassed schools for undue favours like admissions, participated in the India against Corruption campaign and a host of other issues involving Human Rights and Social Justice. The Sabha has also organized large Public Rallies that have received good response at Azad Maidan and Shivaji Park and initiated mass agitations whenever it felt that there was injustice and brought the issues to the notice of the Government.

"It is certainly my conviction and desire that every Catholic working member of the community becomes a member of the Bombay Catholic Sabha”
