Atheists meet in Bangalore

I'm from Bangalore. Would like to know if there is any weekly or monthly gathering for atheists. If not, it would be nice to come up with one and take it forward. Interested folks please acknowledge.

Nice to know there is overwhelming response to replies and good to have you here Nagendra. I will definitely get in touch with you and join the movement.

Nothing in Mumbai/Maharashtra? :(

Our next program is in Vengurla, Kudal on the 19th Dec. There will be a leadership development camp there from 19th to 22nd.
We have tried to develop groups in Mumbai but have not been very successful. There is the proposal for a training camp at Mahad some time in Jan.,2010 but nothing concrete so far. Please look up rationalist movement- the challenges ahead on nirmukta.com for a discussion on this issue.

Thanks a lot Narendra.
I thought about starting a CFI or Secular Students Alliance in my campus but nobody is interested except me. don't want to end up making an organization where I am the only member :)

We wanted to have a training program in Mumbai. The venue is always available with all facilities at M.N.Roy center. But, sadly there is none who can organise it there. Last time I was there for a program was when we had one at Wilson College, Chowpatty. Before that we had some in Somiaya College, Vidya Vihar.
What a tragedy that the commercial capital of India has no rationalist movement at all! Things are not very different at the political capital too. After many years we had a training program at Delhi last month. But, most of the participants were from outside Delhi. We had only a handful from Delhi. Since you have already gone through my writeup I dont have much to say. I will be in Mumbai(Thane) on the 30th Dec and will be coming back to Mangalore on the 31st.
