Dear Conference delegate,
This
is in continuation of our earlier correspondence regarding your participation
at BIND-06. I hope that you have already obtained your travel visa.
We suggest you to carry official invitation letters/e-mail correspondence
confirming the acceptance of your abstract for poster presentation.
You may like to keep a print out of this document for your convenience.
We wish to inform you the following:
For delegates from foreign country:
1. If you travel from Delhi to Lucknow
by air, then you need to transfer from International terminal to Domestic
terminal at New Delhi airport. It is likely that a transit vehicle is
arranged by the airlines and it takes around 30 minutes to reach domestic
terminal from International terminal. If such option is not readily
available, please take a pre-paid taxi from the arrival lounge to reach
domestic terminal. It is possible to obtain Indian currency at the airport
(arrival lounge) in exchange of USD, Euro or GBP. Other currency exchange
may not be easy at New Delhi airport, as I understand.
2. In case you take train
from Delhi to reach Kanpur and you require transit accommodation (overnight
stay) at Delhi, please let us know IMMEDIATELY.
3. If you are arriving at Lucknow airport,
please come out at the arrival lounge and look for a student volunteer
with a placard, bearing your name on it. Your transport from Lucknow
airport to IIT-Kanpur will be arranged by us and the travel time will
be approximately 2.5 hours.
For delegates from India:
4. If you are arriving
at Kanpur Railway Station, please exit the railway station from the
platform no. 1 side and you will find the reception desk of BIND-06
at the exit. The student volunteer will guide you to the travel arrangement,
made by us from Kanpur railway station to IIT-Kanpur. Your travel time
to IIT-Kanpur will be approximately 1 hour.
5. The accommodation of
all the Plenary, Keynote, Invited and other important guests of the
conference has been arranged at the Visitors' Hostel (commonly referred
to as VH) of IIT-Kanpur. For other conference delegates, suitable on-campus
accommodation has been arranged, either at students' hostel or Girls'
hostel or other convenient places inside IIT-Kanpur campus.
6. In case of emergency, please contact
Dr. Basu (cell phone: 09935202571) or Dr. Ashok Kumar (Cell phone: 09936335317).
Please use a prefix of 91, if you call from outside India. In addition,
you can also use the numbers, mentioned towards the end of this document.
