A group of enthusiasts organised a cycle rally in Bengaluru for a social cause.
Bengaluru. When most of the "namma bangalorians" were looking forward to savour their morning cuppa or catch up with their weekend sleep, a group of young IT professionals did not miss the opportunity to hit the city roads at quarter past six on a Sunday morning to cycle 25 Kms, for a cause. 
This group of enthusiasts joined hands for Project Utthaan - All India Music Album launch, a CARTMAN initiative which aims to fund the education of underprivileged children of the beneficiary / partners of the NGO.
Hundreds of volunteers participated in the cycle rally organized by Utthaan team in collaboration with Go-Green group. The start point was CARTMAN society, Koramangala. The group cycled along the Ejipura-Domlur-Trinity Cirlcle-Brigade Road-Austin Town route and back, to spread awareness and support for the music album launch by Project Utthaan, which is dedicated to realising the dreams of these underprivileged children.
