Belagavi, October 23, 2021 (www.justkannada.in): The Kittur Rani Chennamma Mahotsav celebrated in Belagavi every year is celebrating its silver jubilee today. Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai will inaugurate the program today at 7.00 pm.
There is disbelief among the people that if the Chief Minister attends this Utsav he will lose his power. However, Basavaraj Bommai has decided to take part in it in order to wipe out the disbelief.
Then Chief Minister of Karnataka J.H. Patel had inaugurated the Kittur Utsav in 1997. After that none of the CM’s have inaugurated it.
However in 2012 then Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar had participated in the valedictory of the Kittur Utsav. Though B.S. Yedyurappa had also participated in the Kittur Utsav, he had just garlanded the statue of Kittur Chennamma located on the highway and returned without participating in the main programs held in the evening.
