GSB Samyukta Konkani Sabha Pune … popularly known as SKS Pune has been Binding & Serving GSBs of Pune … Since 1983. For close to 40 years, SKS Pune has been the torch bearer of GAUD SARASWAT BRAHMANS (GSBs) of Pune. Starting with humble beginnings, it is the overwhelming love, support, active participation & contributions of Amchigeles that has helped SKS become the Representative Organization of the GSB Community in Pune.

 

Flat# 12 in NISARG Apartments on Prabhat Road, which houses the Community Center of SKS Pune, is the nodal point and the hub of community activities. This premises witnesses Bhajans on 2nd & 4th Sunday evenings, Management Committee meetings, Satyanarayana Poojas and other community gatherings on a small scale.

The Satyanarayan Pooja performed on Ugadi / Gudi Padwa draws a huge participation of Amchigelis to partake the Pooja Prasadam & Prasad Bhojan comprising of authentic GSB cuisine.

To encourage good health and bonding amongst Amchigelis, we have been undertaking treks under the aegis of the GSB TREK GROUP (GTG). Treks are regularly conducted on the 1st & 3rd Sundays of every month. Regular weekend sports meetups are organized by GSB CRICKET GROUP (GCG), GSB BADMINTON GROUP (GBG) & GSB TABLE TENNIS GROUP (GTTG).
