Publicity campaign for Bidar Utsav launched

Bidar zilla panchayat president Kushal Patil Gadagi launched the publicity campaign for Bidar Utsav in Markal village on Friday.

Mr. Gadagi said during the Bidar Utsav besides events for entertainment, programmes that will be useful for farmers and village residents will also be held. Among the events that will be organised will be cattle fair, Krishi Mela, health camp, exhibition and sale of various agricultural equipment. He urged village residents to participate actively in the utsav.

Deputy Commissioner Sameer Shukla said Bidar district utsav was meant to celebrate the culture of the land and it was not just about publicising Bidar city. Transport would be arranged to the utsav venue and food would be provided at subsidised prices, he added.

Earlier, Mr. Gadagi, Mr. Shukla, BJP leader Babu Wali, Congress leader Aravind Arali and others arrived in the village on a bullock cart. They launched the campaign by beating drums. Watershed development officer Venkatramana Reddy was present.
