Mayor of Belgaum this time could be Marathi
At the fag end of the Mayors term of the Belgaum city Corporation the ruling Pro Kannada Sarvabhashik Samavichar Vedike seems to have a split and chances this time that the mayor could be from the Marathi group have strengthened.
The 29 Pro Kannada corporators who were able to elect Prashanta Budvai as the Mayor are now complaining that she did very little for the city in a corporation, which is dominated by Marathi group.
At her last meeting most of the corporators did not turn up and its now said they have formed a new forum. This is a successful conclusion for the Marathi group as they can come back to power in corporation where there has been Marathi mayor since its inception in 1984, except on two occasions.
Twenty-two corporators of the Sarvabhashik Samavichar Vedike, a forum of the pro-Kannada faction, have parted ways with it to form a new outfit.

Belgaum Bullets / Royal Enfield riders club: Riding the Royal way

10:30 PM Posted by ukmad

There is a fascinating number of people out there who have a passion for Bullets / Royal Enfield Bikes. One might wonder though - in Belgaum, we seldom find people using such bikes. However, to your amazement, when you actually start "looking" you'll find that there are a fairly decent number of Royal Enfield enthusiasts in Belgaum City.

Sarayu K R - a law student from R L Law College, a passionate Royal Enfield Thunderbird rider started looking out for such Royal Enfield enthusiasts based in Belgaum. She found three of them online whom she pinged and they decided to meet on Sunday for a ride - 17th November. Amazingly, 9 bikers turned up with 5 pillion riders totally 14 in number. They assembled at Big Bazaar and then packed off on a ride to Hattargi - 35 kms away from Belgaum cruising at an average speed of 50 kmph. The objective of their ride was not speed but to enjoy the ride itself and of course nature.They stopped at a Dhaba for lunch, and then took some pictures across the highway followed by some tea at a Chai ka Thela. They started at 12 noon and returned to Belgaum - Hanuman Nagar at around 5. Dispersed at 5.30 pm.

Present Group members: Gaurav Wagle - Thunderbird, Sarayu K R - Thunderbird, Wati Jamir - Thunderbird, Aadil Bandukwala - Thunderbird Twinspark, Ram Mallya - Machismo, Urjeet Swamy - STD 350, Nitin Balbondi - STD 350, Sameer Walvalkar - STD 350, Akshay Kanwar - Electra 5S.


The group plans to start a club soon for Royal Enfield Bikers and plans to meet every fortnight for a ride - usually on Sundays.
I did not even get a chance to be a pillion rider on that Royal Enfield. But all those I know a few more get together guys and gals and ride the Royal way.
