The finals of the 200-metre Dragon Boat Championships, which was held for the first time in Bengaluru, on Sunday proved to be a fine spectacle for the residents of the city, especially for those in and around Ulsoor Lake.

 The race was held in three categories — women’s, men’s and mixed — with participants from Kerala,  Maharashtra as well as different parts of Karnataka, as well as from those from armed and naval forces.

The races were eagerly cheered on by curious, enthusiastic crowds.
