Pre-Conference Delhi Tour

A one-day Delhi tour on 30 November 2025 comes as a complimentary engagement to all registered delegates. The seat of many powerful empires in the past, its long history can be traced in its many carefully preserved monuments, ancient forts, and tombs. It is home to three World Heritage monuments—Qutub Minar, Red Fort, and Humayun's Tomb—that have survived many centuries and give an idea of architectural wonders in this part of India (Delhi Tourism).

A visit to Delhi is not complete without experiencing its famed cuisine, such as its delicious curries, barbecued tikkas, and kebabs. It is also a shoppers' haven with rich woven silks, handicrafts, or ethnic cushions to pick up for your home. The list is endless. It is time to celebrate this city, a symbol of the country's rich past and thriving present.

Post-Conference Excursion

A post-conference excursion to the prestigious major projects like Tehri and Bhakra Dam in the Himalayas will be organised. Involving a two-day outing, visitors will get acquainted with the technical intricacies of the project and Himalayan tectonics in the vicinity.

With India making significant strides in renewable energy, and with the availability of 70 GW solar power, the focus now is on developing a whopping 47 GW of pumped storage capacity in the next decade.
