Sethna’s Scouting Society celebrates 91 years this year. It is the oldest continuously running Scout group in India and probably the world.
What started as an idea, an experiment; way back in the August of 1914, today has over 91 wonderful years, come to become an Institution non paralleled in the nation and probably the world, in its own field.
One man, Rustomji Edulji Sethna stumbled upon a book, by Lord Baden Powell, on a then new, relatively unknown activity, called Boy Scouting. The brilliance and the vision in the man saw it as a building block of society and a way to make good citizens of our nation, from young boys at a very influential age.
