After a long but thankfully uneventful 28 hours from SFO to Bangalore, the team was welcomed with heartfelt hospitality by the Rotary Club of Bangalore North and the administration and staff of the Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences, Hospital and Research Center in Nagamangala. Following a welcome breakfast the Rotaplast mission team was honored at a ceremony attended by several hundred staff, medical students and community members and presided over by spiritual leader, Shri Shri Shri Nirmalananda Swamiji.
