Thanks to @Traveler G for helping in the meetup approval process. Thanks to @Pakiyaswami LG sir, @@Rtn. Arul Prakasam T LG, @Ravi Local Guude, @@Jose LG for all your support and organizing the event systematically. Thanks t@Amrish and team for taking initiative for the Great Heritage walk part II. Special thanks to googlers for considering our request for multiple meetups and approving it on time, very special thanks to google moderator @KlaudiyaG .
