  1. Dear Youth Friends,
    See, how colourful is Hubli and Gulbarga !
    Our Capital city is OK. But Kasargod, Sivamogga, Hasan are plain.
    Anyway the programme brought spirit among youth specially among College Students. In Hubli from distance of more than 4 KM, also youths came and joined in a collective manner. The whole Nehru Stadium was looking saffron. Very inspiring seen. Thanks to all those who encouraged and supported this Bharath Jagrthi douD.
