Card. Oswald Gracias, Archbishop of Bombay, on February 17 reelected president of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India for a second term. The election took place on the fifth day of the conferences’ 34 plenary assembly at St John’s Medical College in Bengaluru, capital of Karnataka. The 75-year-old cardinal is among the six advisers of Pope Francis. The Pope had extended Cardinal Gracias’ term as the Bombay archbishop last December. The Indian prelate had submitted his resignation in November as he was about to cross 75, the mandatory year of retirement.
