Zahira Walk postponed to January 2013

View(s):

Zahira Walk 2012 was postponed to January 2013 due to the prevalent weather conditions. The decision was unanimously taken at a meeting which was held yesterday with the consensus of the College authorities and organizing committee. ‘We received an overwhelming response on the Walk and It was rather disappointing to postpone this event but it has been postponed for good as the inclement weather conditions are not conducive to organize it successfully’ project chairman Zulfiquar Ahamed stated.

The main concern which led to this decision was the safety and inconvenience of the students and all other participants as a crowd of over five thousand individuals of all ages was expected to participate in the parade. According to resources, it will be pouring this week and the chances of many areas in the city of Colombo as well as outside facing the threat of heavy flooding are also very high. All participants who have bought their tickets are requested to hold on to them as more information will follow in due course. The project is rescheduled to take place in the month of January 2013.

“We wish to thank all those who confirmed their participation thus showing their affiliation towards their Alma Mater and we look forward to the same enthusiasm and participation on the new date” further stated Zulfiquar.
