Queen's Baton Commonwealth Games 2010

Image
A proud moment with the Queen's baton of Commonwealth Games Delhi 2010 . The reasons for the pride is that the Baton has commenced its journey several months back and has been traveling all commonwealth countries,expected to cover more than 70 nations meeting over a billion of the world population ( I guess it should be more than a billion as India, the host itself has a population closer to a billion!!). I got a chance to hold the Baton at Heritage Park Hotel, Honiara, Solomon Islands where I work and where the baton stayed for few days before commencing its journey to other countries.The Baton is so special to me personally as an Indian that I got a chance to hold the baton going to India (it's final destination) in a South pacific Island nation far from my home and rare to see any Indian faces. The Baton has quite a lot of amazing special features like soils from all parts of India forming the outer design,GPS,The Queen's message,LED changing its colour automatically
