After an agonising gap of two years and a cessation of all physical events, we are heading back on track. It was in the year 1996, August, that the first annual International spine conference was held in Mumbai, under the able guidance of our founder member, Professor P.S. Ramani. It was this get together which initiated the birth of NSSA..
