Hi All,

Hyderabad Python Users Group is interested in taking on the responsibility
of organizing PyCon India 2023 in Hyderabad. Our team has experience in
organizing conferences, including the "PyConf Hyd" (a relatively
smaller-scale conference) and PyCon India 2018. Although some experienced
members of our team have relocated, we believe we still have the capability
to pull this off.

If the larger community is open to giving us the opportunity, we would be
happy to send a detailed proposal and a tentative timeline by the end of
this month.

Please feel free to ask any questions, either I or someone from the HydPy
group will be happy to assist.

Best,
Sanchit

With Regards,
