Dear Satish and Rajnesh, Thank you for this observation. Indeed, I followed up with the applicant to clarify, and Buddha said he is a member of ISOC Delhi. ISOC Delhi is an accredited APRALO ALS. Buddha is not a primary or secondary contact, but according to APRALO Individual Membership criteria, an Individual Member can "Not be a member of an accredited ALS." I hope this is helpful.

Perhaps we need to re-word the question to something like "Are you currently a member of any organization that is a certified At-Large Structure (ALS) affiliated to APRALO? The current list of APRALO ALS are available at <link>." satish On Sat, Dec 2, 2017 at 6:39 PM, Rajnesh Singh <rajnesh.singh@gmail.com<mailto:rajnesh.singh@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi Evin, I may be being a bit pedantic here, but your question to Buddha is not phrased correctly. You ask: "Are you currently a member of an ISOC or At-Large Structure (ALS)?" ISOC is not an ALS. Individual ISOC chapters in their own right (and only some, not all) are.
