By now my stomach started to give indications of low fuel, so the first thought of heading to Doddamane, check for availability of a room and then have lunch. Was lucky enough to find one and even luckier to have a wonderful lunch filled with local delicacies. Had a wholesome meal in the late afternoon, roamed around the town to get a feel of Malgudi Days. The scene has almost not changed except for a building or two that have come off late. Since it was time for the sunset I head towards the view point which was just 3 kms from the town but was disappointed with the clouds forming and spoiling the view. On the way back I was stopped by the police who enquired about my vehicle details and my ID card. On presenting the required documents, he advised me not to venture out in the darkness alone. Reason being , you are very likely to be attacked by Naxals who are very active in the region. One more piece of advice he gave was that no visitor(mostly on two wheels) should be wearing a khaki or olive green(military green) colored clothes. You are very like to be shot by either the cops or naxals, because both of them use the same colored uniform. But he also admitted that the Naxals activities have reduced by a large extent nowadays but it was not definitely worth taking the risk. Bidding them good bye I head back to the room for an early dinner and hit the bed asap because I had planned for Kundadri Betta( about 20km from agumbe) to see the sunrise over the mountains first hand.
