Dear Members, Delegates, and Esteemed Faculty,

The Executive Committee of the Association of Surgeons of India (ASI) is pleased to welcome you to ASICON 2026, an event that stands as a testament to our collective commitment to advancing surgical education, research, and excellence across the country.

ASICON has always been more than an annual meeting — it is a platform where ideas are exchanged, collaborations are born, and the future of surgical practice is shaped. In 2026, we continue this proud tradition by bringing together distinguished experts, promising young surgeons, innovators, and thought leaders under one dynamic and inclusive forum.

This year’s conference, hosted in the vibrant state of Gujarat, promises a blend of rigorous academics and cultural richness. We commend the Organising Committee for their visionary planning, meticulous execution, and dedication to creating a world-class experience for all ASI members. Their efforts reflect the core values of ASI — integrity, innovation, inclusion, and a deep commitment to improving patient care.

As you participate in the scientific sessions, skill enhancement programs, discussions, and fellowship opportunities, we encourage you to engage wholeheartedly. Your insights, curiosity, and contributions are what sustain the strength and relevance of our association.

On behalf of the ASI Executive Committee, we extend our sincere wishes for a productive, inspiring, and memorable ASICON 2026. May this conference enrich your knowledge, expand your networks, and reinforce our shared mission of elevating surgical excellence across India.

Warm regards,
ASI Executive Committee
Association of Surgeons of India
