We are the best candidates because...

Driving is our PASSION! Discovering places is our HOBBY! Making new friends is our NATURE! Learning culture is our INTEREST! Upliftment of the less fortunate is our CONCERN! We didn’t want to make this sound very poetic, but couldn’t describe our excitement for this adventure any better. An opportunity to broaden our minds! We have done many long distance drives together though mostly limited to the southern part of India. On our drives, our discoveries were not just places of geographical and historical interest but also of the soul of the country. The throb of life in a simple wayside chai shop, the enterprise found in a small town market place, the diversity in food, culture, dressing, dialects as we travel from one district to the other – all of it provides continuous excitement and an opportunity broaden ones perspective. Travel, we feel, makes us better human beings – in a land known for its diversity in almost every facet of life, this one aspect is all important in broadening of minds and expansion of hearts. It transforms us into responsible and proud citizens of the country. An opportunity to love the less fortunate At a personal level, this great journey is an opportunity to get to know the poorer and the less fortunate brethren in rural areas. It is a wonderful way to increasing our sensitivity to the problems and issues of the poor in a different part of the country. Having been associated with a family that believes in the upliftment of the downtrodden, we will be able to bring unique perspectives into similar contexts in a different region. We would also look forward to carrying back some of our learnings to make a difference to people around us. An opportunity to carry the message of unity Through the Great Driving Challenge, we strongly believe that we could become the brand ambassadors of India to its own citizens – in celebrating our diversity and thereby fostering unity in these troubled and difficult times of increasing intolerance and bigotry.

Our Travel Plan

Our travel plan essentially will include travelling through villages in between important towns. The towns are just used as night halts. The focus is really on the journey rather than the destinations. It’s about the people that we will meet on the way. We essentially intend to cover 4 states namely Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. The highlight is to visit the 2 most important places in India connected with Mahatma Gandhi namely Porbandar (his birthplace) and Ahmedabad (the place that he operated largely out of.) We also intend to visit Dandi to pay tribute to the famous Dandi march. Day 1: Mumbai – Surat (286 Kms) (Visit Dandi on the way) Day 2: Surat – Ahmedabad (272 Kms). (Visit Sabarmati Ashram) Day 3: Ahmedabad – Rajkot (231 Kms) Day 4: Rajkot – Porbandar (182 Kms) (Visit Mahatma Gandhi’s birthplace) Day 5: Porbandar – Ahmedabad (394 Kms) Day 6: Ahmedabad – Udaipur (233 Kms) Day 7: Udaipur – Jaipur (400 Kms) Day 8: Jaipur – Kota (257 Kms) Day 9: Kota – Indore (349 Kms) Day 10: Indore – Dhule (259 Kms) Day 11: Dhule – Nasik (157 Kms) Day 12: Nasik – Mumbai (172 Kms)
