As a rule hands of clocks all over the world show movements from left to right ,but an exception to the rule is the Gondwana clock.Probably the only one of its kind in the world, this clock moves from right to left.Manufactured by the Gondwana samaj in Bilaspur it has its own explanation.

The farmer while ploughing moves from right to left,even during offerings to agni the offerings are rotated from right towards left.Normally when asked to run around in circles we tend to move from right to left.With all this in mind and according to the gond culture the clock rotates in opposite direction to the other clocks.

The elders in the community claim that initially all clocks moved this way, but the Englishmen changed the original directions.
