Called Zat Se, this is a Games helpline and one will not have to pay to enjoy the service.

"Ask us anything about the Games, including event venues, places where tickets are available, routes to take and places to park your car. We have the answer ready for you," said an official of the helpline.

He said Zat Se provides information on the phone, through email and also via SMS.

Zat Se is an initiative of Hero Group, one of the leading industrial conglomerates in India, which has started providing the helpline service in Delhi-NCR.

"We have plans to expand it to other parts of the country soon. After the Games, we will continue with the helpline and provide coordinates of all kinds of product sellers and service providers such as hotels, restaurants, cinema halls, shopping complexes, clinics, doctors, plumbers among others," said Ashima Munjal, MD, Hero Group.

She said: "We started the service on Saturday, on the eve of Games inauguration, on an experimental basis and the response so far is indeed overwhelming. Everyday we are handling 400 to 500 Games-related queries on an average."

Organising Committee spokesperson Lalit Bhanot said, "I am sure this service is helping people who want to see the Games."
