Still as this is just the first day after the installation of the idols in the pandals, still the decoration is going on.

belgaum city map 1894

I have just found a Belgaum city map of 1894 from the Bombay Gazetteer. The image was in a pdf file & of low resolution and is not very clear. Thanks, Mr.Vilas Patil, a Belgaumite, now working in Pune who has made the present version on the image which is better viewable. See Belgaum in 1894 and now, it has changed.

I request all the readers to send in their comments as to what changes they have found in that map and the current Belgaum.
