As Gandhinagar gears up for the 10th Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit, the Gujarat capital has transformed into a city of lights and colour.
The event, set to begin on Jan 10, has seen key locations like Mahatma Mandir, Dandi Kutir, and GIFT City illuminated with lights.
In anticipation of the summit, the administration has implemented special arrangements to ensure smooth operations and public convenience.
A significant change is the revised start time for all government offices in Gandhinagar on the inauguration day.
To minimise traffic disruptions and facilitate easy access for dignitaries, offices will now open at 12 p.m., a shift from the usual 10.30 a.m.
Heads of survey offices in the city have been directed to strictly adhere to these changes.
Chief minister Bhupendra Patel reviewed the preparations on Jan 8.
He also visited the Mahatma Mandir and Helipad Ground, accompanied by key state cabinet members and senior officials.
Hotels and government buildings across Gandhinagar have been adorned with thematic lighting and laser displays.
The prime minister Narendra Modi arrived on the night of Jan 8 in Ahmedabad to inaugurate the 10th Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit.
Moreover, the roadshow of PM Modi is scheduled to start from Ahmedabad airport to Indira Bridge today.
