Exploring Bengaluru
The Rotaractors of RI District 3192 hosted a multidistrict programme called Payana – Banna Namma Bengalurige (Welcome to Bengaluru) where over 40 delegates from across 11 Rotary districts in India were welcomed to explore the city’s iconic landmarks, adventurous trekking spots, delicious local cuisine and vibrant cultural event (Karunaada Utsava), immersing themselves in the city’s unique charm and rich heritage. Sixteen Rotaract clubs of RID 3192 enthusiastically opened their doors to ensure the delegates experienced the best of Bangalore’s warmth and culture.
“The delegates were treated to a well-structured itinerary that showcased the best of Bengaluru’s rich heritage, modernity, and culture. From exploring iconic landmarks to experiencing the city’s vibrant nightlife and culinary delights, the programme ensured that participants carried home not just memories but also friendships to last a lifetime,” said Rakshith K Shetty, the project coordinator. The highlight of the programme was the interactive sessions, workshops and joint meetings, where ideas were exchanged, and Rotaractors shared their districts’ unique activities and initiatives. “These discussions fostered collaborations and inspired innovative projects for the future.”
The event was meticulously planned and executed by the RID 3192’s International Service team comprising Rtr/Rtn Saurab B, Veekshitha, Rakshith Suresh, Shashantha N and
Sai Sparsha. “Their tireless efforts ensured seamless coordination between host clubs and delegates, making Payana a huge success. We thank our sponsors for their generous support and others who contributed immensely to make this event memorable,” said Shetty.
