One more record is going to be broken...........this time mass chess playing

Friends,

See the photo first,

This photo is taken from my office window. Ground is called "University Ground", which is popular for large, grand scale celebrations. This time one very large scale Government function is going to be organize here called "SWARNIM CHESS MAHOTSAV". Actual event will be held on 24th dec, but preparations are going day and night since last 10 days.

Four years ago Mexico City got into the Guinness Book of Records by staging simultaneous exhibitions for 14,000 chess enthusiasts. On December 24 the city of Ahmedabad in India is set to break the record with 20,000 participants. It promises to be a visual spectacle, with University Grounds turned into a giant chess board with 64 alternating black and white squares. 

I will surely post actual event photos soon. Keep visiting. 

Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2011, Mahatma Mandir construction updates-4

Hi Friends,

I had posted some photos of Mahatma Mandir from Backside in earlier posts, this time here are some latest photos from the front.

Today I have visited Gandhinagar and above place and made some observations, which are as below;

• Road work is still pending, however main road is in good condition which leads to the location. 
• Actual location has not still ready, still some finishing work is going on (construction)
• They have demolished some Govt 4 storied building to make new road for Mahatma Mandir. 
• I had visited the same place in past many time, but now it is totally different scenario. 
• They have cut lots of trees and replanted it at some distinct location through some latest mechanism truck ( I have seen that truck)
• They have dimolished some hundred zoggies from backside of the site which I had talked earlier. 
• There have started some local news for traffic diversion and other arrangements in advance. 
• Looking at the scale of arrangement and time remaining, they will surely make it, no doubt about it, but they have to do lots of firefighting work. 

I will update finally around first week of January. Till then bye and keep visiting and keep clicking on google ads as earning will help the mentally retired people.
