Preparations for Kambala Buffaloes’ Rest Stop Reviewed

Kushalanagara, Oct 14: A preliminary meeting was held at the Municipal Office to discuss arrangements for providing a rest stop in Kushalanagara for Kambala buffaloes traveling from Dakshina Kannada district—via Madikeri—en route to the 'Mysuru Kambala Dasara' event.

The meeting, attended by municipal officials, the Kambala Organizing Committee, and representatives from various organizations, focused on the necessary preparations and the outline of the scheduled program.

Speaking at a subsequent press conference, T.S. Girish, Chief Officer of the Kushalanagara Municipality, provided details regarding the arrangements. On the afternoon of the 17th, over 150 pairs of Kambala buffaloes are expected to arrive in Kushalanagara.

Arrangements for the buffaloes' rest and fodder have been made at the Jatra Maidan (fair grounds) in Gundurao Layout. Provisions for meals have also been organized—not only for the 2,000 people accompanying the buffaloes but also for the general public from Kushalanagara and surrounding areas who come to view them. A stage program has been planned to coincide with the welcoming and send-off of the buffaloes. The event will be attended by the two MLAs from Kodagu, as well as the MLA from the Puttur constituency. Additionally, there will be performances featuring coastal musical ensembles and the traditional 'Huli Vesha' (tiger dance). Manjunath Gundurao, former chairman of the Kushalanagara Planning Authority, stated that MLA Manthar Gowda has provided the people of the Kushalanagara region with an opportunity to witness the famous Kambala buffaloes. He urged the public to welcome these buffaloes and support this traditional art form, encouraging a large turnout for the event. He further suggested that organizing a Kambala event during the renowned 'Go-Jathre' (cattle fair) in Kushalanagara would add significant grandeur to the occasion, and urged that the attention of the Puttur MLA be drawn to this proposal.
