TRIP TO R.I.D 3260 (BHUBANESWAR AND CUTTACK)
Monday, December 21, 2009
Rotaract club of Behala made a small Rotaract goodwill visit to R.I.D 3260 in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack from 20th to 22nd December, 09. President Rtr Soummojit and Secretary Rtr George representing the club started for the brief trip contacting the DRR of the R.I.D 3260 Rtr Sriniwasan Prusty on the 20th of Dec, 09 from Kolkata taking a direct bus to Bhubaneswar-the capital city of Orissa.
Reaching Bhubaneswar the next day morning at around 6:30 am, the first thing done was to contact the DRR again taking whose direction and guidance; we first visited the famous Lingaraj Temple and then the historic Dhauli Giri, beside where the famous battle of Kalinga had taken place after which the great transformation in King Asoka had taken place. Visiting the two famous spots of the place now was the time to get onto the purpose of our visit- Rotaracting.
From the help of the DRR again we contacted the ZRR of the zone Rtr Shubhalagna Das- who was to meet us at Cuttack along with the President of Rotaract Club of Cuttack Silver City. So it was time for us to make a move to Cuttack which we did after having some snacks in the capital city. Reaching Cuttack-which was only 27 kms away from Bhubaneswar, we had to wait in the bus stop for the Rotaractors. It was within few minutes that we were being hosted by the ZRR and President of Rotaract Club of Cuttack silver city- Rtr Afsar Ahmed Khan in a restaurant. Having chats and snacks, is where we interacted a lot exchanging cultures-emphasizing on the pros and cons of our each others cultures with a positive attitude and not to forget discuss a lot of stuffs happening in rotaract from the two districts. It was a healthy conversation which went on for about two hours after which we presented them with a token of love and our official club bulletin-Santoor. They also presented us with their district directory- Disha for this Rota-year. We then bid farewell to each other and we headed back towards Bhubaneswar- but only with assurances to meet again in the near future. After an enjoyable but hectic trip we were again back seated in a bus by 6pm to come back to Kolkata.
The DRR needs a special mention because of his immense help over the phone and he along with the ZRR, also invited us to their District Rotaract Conference to be held on the 9th and 10th January, 2010 at Gopalpur-on-sea.
