Last week we had been to Malvan for field work. It was raining heavy. We had to cross the backwater streams with waist depth water. After we returned to belgaum, two days later there was huge landslide on Amboli Ghat. One of the photo (Rajesh with Camera) is near the place where the landslide took place.

Kola- A traditional function of Dakshina Kannada

Recently, I attended "Kola" a traditional function of Dakshina Kannada, to satisfy the daivas (Bhootaradhane) at Karkala.

I visited Kemmangundi, St.Mary's Island and Ankola with students on Geological study tour.

Saturday I had been to BRB College, Raichur as guest speaker. From there I went to Kurnool to see the famous Belum Caves. It is a wonderful art created by water underground. One must not miss it!!

Today we have inaugurated two day workshop. I was the convener for this workshop. Dr.S.H.Pawar, VC of DY Patil Deemed University was Chief Guest & Shri.R.D.Shanbhag principal presided over.
