Trip One Of 2000 - BANGALORE - NAGPUR.. 02 JAN - 28 JAN.

I did not get expected extension. Apparently in Flying and Logistic Branch promotions of regular officeres were adversely affected as re-employed officers were filling the establishment vacancies. Decision, therefore was taken that all re-employed Gp Capts of flying branch and Wg Cdrs of logistics branch would not be given extension.

My re- employment term was to expire on 30 November 1999, as per my appointment letter. For reasons known only to Air Hq. my release was made effective from 31 December 1999. 

Our time was our own to do as we felt like. Decided to make good use of the car. Return to Nagpur along the west coast. 

To prepare for the trip first thing we wanted was road map. Went around looking for maps. We found TTK had series of state wise road maps. They were in sufficient details. Places of tourist interest were shown by a star with a line about it.These maps were good. We saw that were passing through Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra. Studied these. Decided on the route of not more than 200 - 250 KMs a day. Saw the star location along the route. Decided that if a star was within 50 odd KMs of our route we would visit that place. Finalised the places , route and places we would stay the night. 

Route decided was :

BANGALORE -BELUR,HELABIDU, HASAN -SUBRAMANYA, DHARMSHALA, MANGALORE - UDIPI - KARWAR - GOA - KOLHAPUR - GANAPATIPULE -MUMBAI - PUNE - AJANTA - NAGPUR. 

Air Cmde Ali was NCC boss for Karnataka, Andhra and Goa. Requested him to make arrangements for night stay through NCC units at those places. All was arranged up to Ganapatipule stay, that is up to where writ of Ali ran.  

At that time Anuj was also in Bangalore. We decided that we would attend New Year eve party on 31 Dec 99 . Give one day for the hangover to wear off and start our return journey on 02 December 2000.

So the ride began.........
