Because
of
some
bizzarre
logic
you
can't
take
photographs
on
a
dslr
here.Apparently
the
project
incharge
has
declared
photography
on
a
high
end
camera
'COMMERCIAL'
.But
smartphone
cameras
are
good
to
go.
Can
you
imagine
that
happening
on
any
other
architectural
site?Ever
seen
anyone
stopping
people
from
taking
photographs
of
Qutub
Minar?People
visit
these
kind
of
places
especially
TO
TAKE
PHOTOGRAPHS.You
deny
them
that
you
sure
as
hell
end
up
with
a
bad
review.Who
can
actually
expect
this
to
happen?NO
PHOTOGRAPHS,this
is
a
TOURIST
SPOT.It
will
take
a
mystic
to
see
that
one
coming.
Project
incharge
assured
me
that
he
will
discuss
this
issue
in
the
forthcoming
board
meeting.But
who
came
up
with
that
rule
in
the
first
place?'Someone
might
bring
a
high
end
camera
for
non-commercial
purposes
here'-the
thought
never
crossed
the
minds
of
well
educated
and
experienced
government
officials
handling
tourism
for
the
nation's
capital.How
can
someone
not
consider
that
while
making
the
rules?But
in
case
they
did
,they
failed
to
mention
which
cameras
are
allowed
and
are
considered
high
end.Coolpix
is
permitted?Can't
tell,no
one
can.
They
said
this
is
a
first
time
such
an
issue
has
been
raised.So
I
guess
it
would
not
be
wrong
to
infer
that
people
don't
visit
this
place
that
much.The
board
should
take
the
super-obvious
decision
here
and
do
that
ASAP.(to
avoid
further
embarrassment
of
course)
Great
place
to
visit
though,Well
maintained
and
clean.But
its
just
the
camera
thing
that
makes
this
place
one
of
a
kind.Truly
unique.
And
stupid
