New Range in Bombay?

Post by Lenny » Sat Sep 22, 2007 10:37 am

Hi all
I had spoken to Monish about a week ago.
and he mentioned about a range next to the Mahatma Gandhi Pool
any know more details, or Monish can you enlighten us and fellow members about it. It sounds good news. Is it private or gov?

Lenny, there has been a very basic 10 metre range opposite Shivaji Park for years. Perhaps it is this that is being renovated.

Lenny,

I have no idea when it started but my first and only visit to that place was in 1995. You did not miss anything. ;)
