Respected Seniors & Colleagues,,

With great pride, we wish to inform you that the Department of Ophthalmology, Meerut Ophthalmological Society (MOS), is organizing the Annual Conference of U.P. State Ophthalmology Society conference UPCON 2024 on 29th, 30th November & 1st December 2024 at LLRM Medical College, Meerut. There will be pre-conference workshops on November 29th, 2024.

UPCON 2024 promises to be an exceptional event, bringing together leading experts, researchers, and practitioners in the field of ophthalmology. The conference will feature a comprehensive program, including keynote addresses, panel discussions, workshops, and paper and poster presentations, covering a wide array of topics relevant to contemporary ophthalmology practice and research. Your participation in this conference would be a tremendous honor and would greatly contribute to the diversity and depth of the discussions. We are confident that your insights and expertise will enrich the program and inspire fellow attendees.

Meerut is situated between the holy rivers Ganga and Yamuna Meerut is a busy trade centre of western Uttar Pradesh. Meerut probably derives its name from the word “Maya Rashtra”, meaning the country of Maya, who was the architect of the asuras (the demons) as per Hindu mythology. His daughter Mandodari was the wife of Ravana, the antagonist of the first epic, Ramayana. In Mahabharata, the Kauravas had their capital in Hastinapur, which is situated in the present-day Meerut District. Meerut is called the “sports city of India” because of the thriving sports goods industry here. Sugar and electronics goods are other flourishing industries. Meerut and nearby Modinagar form an educational hub adjacent to the national capital. Shaheed Smarak and Hastinapur Jain Temple are the most popular attractions to visit in the city.

We look forward to welcoming you to Meerut for UPCON 2024.

About the city

Meerut, a prominent city in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, is distinguished by its profound historical significance and cultural richness. As one of the oldest cities in India, Meerut serves as a testament to the country's extensive and multifaceted past, with its numerous monuments reflecting the city's storied heritage. The city is notably recognized for its pivotal role in the First War of Indian Independence in 1857, an event that indelibly shaped the nation's history.

A key landmark in Meerut is the Augarnath Temple, colloquially known as the "Kali Paltan Mandir." This temple is not merely a spiritual hub but also a historical emblem of the city's involvement in the 1857 uprising. It is said that the initial sparks of the rebellion were ignited within the vicinity of this temple, making it a site of immense historical and cultural significance. The architectural design of the Augarnath Temple, characterized by intricate carvings and traditional motifs, stands as a symbol of resilience and devotion.

Another significant monument is St. John's Church, which holds the distinction of being one of the oldest churches in North India. Established during the British colonial era, this church is an exemplary representation of 19th-century colonial architecture. The church's grandeur is accentuated by its Gothic design, complete with towering spires, stained glass windows, and meticulously crafted interiors. St. John's Church not only serves as a place of worship but also as a historical edifice that offers insights into the colonial period's architectural and cultural influences.
