With kambalas (buffalo run on slush tracks or field) set to begin in the coastal belt from November 16, there will be additions to the annual event this and next year.
It will take the total number of competitive events, barring the traditional kambalas which are mostly non-competitive in nature, organised by the Kambala Committee of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, and Kasaragod (Kerala) districts from 18 to 20.
According to a former general secretary and presently a member of the committee N. Vijaya Kumar Kanginamane, a ‘kambala’ will be organised under the auspices of the committee at Ballamanja in Dakshina Kannada during the 2021-22 season as an addition. Thus the committee will organise 19 events in this season. In addition, a new kambala track, 135m in length, is being developed at Panapila, near Moodbidri now. It will be ready for hosting the event during the 2022-23 season.
