CHITWAN, Nov 25: The 30th edition of the World Elephant Polo competition is to be held from November 28 in Meghauli of western Chitwan, where it is held every year.



The five-day event will have eight teams as participants including two from home and six foreign, said organizer and Tiger Tops Hotel General Manager Yadav Bantawa.[break]



The event will help make Tourism Year 2011 a success, say the organizers.



The completion will be held at the airport grounds in Meghauli where foreign nationals James Man Clark and the late Jim Edwards had started it in Meghauli 27 years ago.
