The Catholic Church in India has announced the appointment of a new president of Ecumenical Church Loan Fund of India (ECLOF).

Most Rev. Dr. P.C. Singh, President of the National Council of Churches in India (NCCI) and Moderator of the Church of North India (CNI), has been elected to serve as the President of ECLOF India.

Singh, the Bishop of the Jabalpur Diocese of the CNI, was elected as President, early this month, at the Board of Directors' meeting held at Chennai. He has taken over charge from the Rt. Rev. Dr. G.
