Friends,
Yesterday I had gone to see Vibrant Navaratri organized by Gujarat Government. Some key points first:
  •         This govt event has been organized since last few years only (almost 2004). Initially it started from Gandhinagar and now held in Ahmedabad since last 2-3 years.
  •         This is not only Garba event; it consists of food court, handloom expo, adventure sports, kids entertainment and Gujarat documentary in special shows.
  •   This event is addition to that Independence, 26th jan parade, and 1 st May program that has been now celebrated to different districts.
  •        It is organized based on PPP model, no entrance fees, almost all the expenditure borne by GINFS society created by top Gujarat based industries.

Now highlights of yesterday’s visit:

  • ·        It is such a big ground, almost 2-3 football ground and every part of this ground is occupied for the event.
  • ·        There were almost more than 50,000 people (my prediction is nearly 75K) in the event, scattered over different podiums.
  • ·        There were nearly thousand traditional garba players playing on the trek which is almost 1Km long.
  • ·        There was also provision for non-traditional players outside the main trek, where so many people playing in individual groups.
  • ·        Ample Audio and Video arrangement with big screens all around the venue.
  • ·        There were theme based pavilions, like Ambaji, Somnath mandir, Ram mandir, Gujarat’s 1000 year story and many more.
  • ·        Kids and young boys were busy in playing games like cycling, trekking on rock mountain, waterball, rolling ball and many more things
  • ·        One totally new stage was made specially to promote our talent through Gujarat Yuva and Sanskrutik Department, where continues program of small traditional garbs, natak lok-dayro played.
  • ·        College students were involved in adventure sports management on nominal fees.
  • ·        There were so many local Gujarat made handicraft stalls where you can find dresses, gift items, some innovative products, mittikool and many more things.


Now some quick bites for this Vibrant event:


  • ·        This event has been visited by 14 ambassadors on special invitation by Gujarat Government and they all felt extraordinary after visiting the site.
  • ·        This event is going on till 16th oct. Closing time is 12M, due to this event almost everywhere in western Ahmedabad including private party plots, garba starts after 12 only. This is really a big thing.
  • ·        I still remember during Gandhinagar Vibrant event, there were more than 5k audience during practice sessions. During actual event people
  • ·        Security arrangements and medical arrangement can be visible there.



Now main thing, I have taken some snaps but could not upload it here because of low quality. I will surely upload whenever I got next chance.

Breaking news for secular media:  Modi has created special RAM JANAMBHOOMI model there, with mandir built and location map with ram rasoi, sita kund and many more. 

Please don’t stop yourself to write a comment and also if possible click on Google ads, I am going to donate the earnings from adsense to mentally retired people and Panjrapol (shelter for holy cows) as mentioned at top right corner.
