Rotary Club of Bidar Silverstar has completed the beautification of Bidri Circle and Bidri Drive in Bidar along with installation of welcome board at Hyderabad-Bidar city entrance.

Described as one of the club’s major public projects, the initiative aims to improve the appearance of the city, create a positive impression on visitors and promote Bidar’s cultural heritage.

Club president Adhish R. Wali said the project was taken up to highlight the city’s identity and promote civic pride among residents.

As part of the work, Bidri Circle was renovated and repainted, while the nearby underpass on Bidri Drive was transformed with murals carrying social and cultural messages.

The artwork includes themes such as responsible use of social media, the internationally renowned Bidri craft and the Anubhava Mantapa, which is described as the world’s first parliament. It also highlights Rotary International’s ‘Ute for Good’ message, the vision of Rise Kalyana Karnataka and the Rotary Cricket Premier League, an initiative to promote education.

Rotary District Governor MK Ravindra launched the project in the presence of Rotary leaders, Public Works Department officials, members of various Rotary Clubs and local Rotarians.
