The National Institute of Amateur Radio (NIAR) has announced that the Lakshadweep Islands (VU7), the #2 Most Wanted DXCC Entity, will be activated in January 2007. Approximately 70 multinational and 30 Indian operators are expected to travel from Kochin, India, by boat to Lakshadweep on or about 12 January. Plans are to operate as VU7RG (requested call, in memory of the late Rajiv Gandhi, VU2RG, former Prime Minister of India) on 15-25 January from three "excellent equipped and well organized sites". An International Advisory Committe (IAC) is constituted under the chairmanship of Mr. S. Suri, VU2MY to organise the event successfully. A Sub-Committee - including Frank Rosenkranz/DL4KQ (Chairman), Kyoko Miyoshi/JR3MVF, Martti Laine/OH2BH and Glenn Johnson/W0GJ (members) and S. Ram Mohan/VU2MYH (convenor) - will deal with requirements/coordination of all international participants in the operations. Further information will be released exclusively by NIAR (www.niar.org).
