News from Gandhi World Foundation

 

Gandhi World Foundation is  conducting a Guinness Book World of Records event in Chennai on January 30th 2013 wherein more than 1000 Children resembling Mahatma Gandhi will assemble in Chennai Marina Beach at 9am and a new Guinness World record will be created by the assembly of such a large gathering of children resembling Gandhiji.

All the children will have their heads tonsured and will wear a Panchakacham (Veshti), Stick and glasses resembling Gandhiji. The Children will also carry placards highlighting some of the important messages of Gandhiji.

A similar kind of event was earlier held in Coimbatore in 2011 and in Kolkatta in 2012 and in Gujarat in 2012. The event held in Kolkatta was attended by around 475 Children and in Gujarat 890 Children had taken part in the event resembling Mahatma Gandhiji. However in all these events, the children's head was not tonsured and they used scalp (wig resembling tonsured head) but we at Gandhi World Foundation are doing this event with tonsuring of the heads of children with the full consent of their Parents. The tonsuring event is scheduled to be held in Gummidipoondi on Jan 29th at 3pm. 

All the children participating in the event are from schools in and around Gummudipoondi, Tiruvallur District.

Apart from Guinness Book of records, this event is also certified by Asia Book of records, Limca Book of records and India & Tamil Nadu book of records.

 

We cordially invite you to Join your hands with us in this Noble Cause which is going to be a world record
