Belgaum to get Bandu patil Circle
11:14 AM Posted by ukmad
Hence it is now decided to rename the Sanchayani Circle as Bandu Patil Circle and circle will be renovated with an island in the middle.
This circle was named as Sanchayani Circle about 10 years ago when Sanchayani group was building a complex at the circle and also had sought permission then from the Cantonment board to maintain the circle. But the Complex was ready but never occupied due to court orders and till date it is lying un used due to litigation.
The Sanchayani group had built a island in the middle but due to non maintenance the island was removed.
