The Club
History
On 20th March 1818,
Gen Munro surrounded the Belgaum Fort with the British Army troops who marched from Madras. On 12th April Gen Munro captured the Belgaum fort and placed it under the Military Command of Madras.
In 1832,
The 1776 acres of land was declared as a ‘Cantonment’. In 1836 the first Collectorate of Belgaum was formed and placed under the ‘Southern Division’ of the Presidency of Bombay. In 1879 the Bombay Land Revenue Code promulgated, thus empowering the Collector as the senior most Revenue officer of a District to attend to all matters of leasing out land for revenue in the District.
In 1882,
The Easements Act was passed which led to the formation of the club. The club was initially formed by European officers posted in Belgaum and was located in the present Cantonment Board Office. The Officers contributed Rs.15,000/- from their own funds for the establishment of the club.
In 1897,
The All India Cantonment Act of 1889 gave vast powers to the local government. In 1897 the Government Resolution 905 of the Revenue Department of the Bombay Province clarifies Government policy for leasing imperial or provincial government land. This resolution established the preeminent position of the Local Government to advise on the revenue aspects of any crown land that is to be leased out, although it could be done only if the Central Department relinquishes the land.
In 1898,
the Government Resolution 2206 authorizes the Collector of the District to lease out the land in Cantonment provided it is relinquished by the Military Department. In 1899 the Collector of Belgaum, acting on Government Resolution 2206, the All India Cantonment Act 1889 and the Bombay Revenue Land Revenue Code and having ascertained from the Madras Deputy Adjunct General, licensed out about 11.62416 acres of land which was not likely of any use to the army to the Belgaum club for a rent of Rs.5/- a year for no fixed term. The invitation to put up permanent structures was explicitly stated in the license. The members sell ‘Old Club’ and invest Rs.15,000/- in ‘New Club’.
