I took a day break to visit my college in Bagalkot. A visit coming after nearly five years. Imagine an excitement equaling meeting up your old flame.
College is painted with it’s new look and one could see buildings sprung up throughout the campus. Our E&C department is relocated to a totally new building. Vidyagiri main road has gone total commercial. Ladies hostel has a brand new block. Our evergreen boys Hostel is still the same.
Old Town of Bagalkot hasn’t changed a bit. Same old dusty roads, free roaming pigs, red-spit graffiti walls and Laxmi theater posters. New kid, Navanagar is like any modern day city. Neat and Planned.
Same old dept staff, those classroom desks, college canteen …all sounds like Purani Jeans aur Guitar number.
Bagalkot bonds, like Bagalkot Cement.

Fantastic narration… “Same old dusty roads, free roaming pigs, red-spit graffiti walls and Laxmi theater posters.” pretty much sums up everything about old bagalkot, quite nicely. Same old sluggish autos, I might add though.
But yes, the new city with its flurry of new buildings and roads, leaves one wondering how they did it in under a decade?!
