Hey Kolhapur is changing!

I wish to inform all the visitors that The way you look at Kolhapur has to be changed and the e revolution has finally reached the collector office.
I remember when i ws trying to publicise internet connectivity and meet people in 19996 nobody was willing to listen to me. I met somebody in nicnet kolhapur office but at that time the nicenet was a bit conservative and they had alot of protocol so the connectivity could not be discussed. At that time BSNL was very active and Mr Sanyal was the man who took the initiative to support the activity and made us create a resoultion at KCCI ( Kolhapur Chamber Of Commerce & Industries) to get internet connectivity through NICNET.An application was sent through Hon Sadashivrao Mandalikji to SUshama Swaraj the then minister for this portfolio and in 1999 Kolhapur was added in first 92 cities to be connecetd via internet backbone.
I was checking for the data of kolhapur and saw dist collecotrs website i was surprised to see Mr deshmukh's blog with a very sincere appeal.
I remember vasant manwadkar's guest book of Kolhapur.com where all those who have left kolhapur used to coment that kolhapur is not soft city but a very hasrh city.
Now the flow is growing the nests are being emptied and many fathers and mothers waiting for their sons and daughters regret for not being in Pune or so..
Actually this is high time for the IT to come to Kolhapur.
Thank god the colllector is at least connected to this part of globe and this time Kolhapur will not miss the bus.

Tukaram Baba

When i started my career as a copywriter there was nobody to tell me about how i should or should not make it and then one day i referred TUKARAM GATHA very nicely indexed one so that say a word and you have something said by tukarambaba. Then i made him my guru like eklavya and after some years when i participated in an exhibition at mumbai through SAKAL i met gopi kukade the maker of the ONIDA advt The very famous neighbour's envy owners pride and he in his speech explained how he was inspired by TUkaram's nindakache ghar asave shejari... It was a great confirmation for my intellectual makeup and then i never looked back in my way of thinking.
I had to close my agency in 1999 due to recovery problems and changing world and then i read the spiritual stuff more seriously and last year i went to dehu the Babas' place. It has shaken me to pieces and i bought the new Gatha there,But it was only possible to have that thought because of the website tukaram.com.
I wish all of you plese check the website of TUkaram and understand what i mean..

KARVEER NAGAR VACHAN MANDIR kOLHAPUR

I was talking of books and then i understood the dimensions of public library this year when i met mr uday kulkarni of Karvver Nagar Vachan Mandir Kolhapur. The oldest of all the public library. This year i found that every where there is rejuvenisation is taking place and temples are getting rebuilt people are coming together to do somehing constructive.

Population is creating pressure on the infrastructure and resources are being pressurised. Everything is asking for a makeover.

Karveer Nagar Vachan Mandir is the one public project awaiting for this makeover in it's own style but the condition is that it should be done by public support only.Interstingly the collection is so rare but hihgly neglected because academicians are not serious about public libraries.

I made some of my studnets visit this library and made presentations here are some photohraphs.

The students have worked fantastically and sincerely.
