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

Republic Day of India

26 January 2009

Greetings on Republic Day

26th January 1950 is one of the most important days in Indian history as it was on this day the constitution of India came into force and India became a truly sovereign state. In this day India became a totally republican unit. The country finally realized the dream of Mahatma Gandhi and the numerous freedom fighters who, fought for and sacrificed their lives for the Independence of their country. So, the 26th of January was decreed a national holiday and has been recognized and celebrated as the Republic Day of India, ever since.

Today, the Republic Day is celebrated with much enthusiasm all over the country and especially in the capital, New Delhi where the celebrations start with the Presidential to the nation. The beginning of the occasion is always a solemn reminder of the sacrifice of the martyrs who died for the country in the freedom movement and the succeeding wars for the defense of sovereignty of their country. Then, the President comes forward to award the medals of bravery to the people from the armed forces for their exceptional courage in the field and also the civilians, who have distinguished themselves by their different acts of valour in different situations.

To mark the importance of this occasion, every year a grand parade is held in the capital, from the Rajghat, along the Vijaypath. The different regiments of the army, the Navy and the Air force march past in all their finery and official decorations even the horses of the cavalry are attractively caparisoned to suit the occasion. The crème of N.C.C cadets, selected from all over the country consider it an honour to participate in this event, as do the school children from various schools in the capital. They spend many days preparing for the event and no expense is spared to see that every detail is taken care of, from their practice for the drills, the essential props and their uniforms.

The parade is followed by a pageant of spectacular displays from the different states of the country. These moving exhibits depict scenes of activities of people in those states and the music and songs of that particular state accompany each display. Each display brings out the diversity and richness of the culture of India and the whole show lends a festive air to the occasion. The parade and the ensuing pageantry is telecast by the National Television and is watched by millions of viewers in every corner of the country.

The patriotic fervor of the people on this day brings the whole country together even in her essential diversity. Every part of the country is represented in occasion, which makes the Republic Day the most popular of all the national holidays of India.
