Ahmedabad: Rain nightmare for Garba organisers

Ahmedabad | Friday | 27th September, 2019

Summary:

The recent spell of rains that began on Wednesday have garba organisers concerned over their events planned for the nine nights of Navratri. It rained about 17 mm on Wednesday and the city witnessed cloudy and moist weather for a significant part of the day on Thursday. This is a matter of serious concern for all commercial garba organisers," said Anil Shah director of Rajpath Club. While earlier, rains would depart much before Diwali, recent years have witnessed rains during Navratri. He hoped that considering the overall scenario, the police and Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation should relax the timings of garba events so that enthusiasts can come to the events..
