Belagavi: The statues of Kittur Rani Chennamma and Sangolli Rayanna will be installed at Suvarna Vidhana Soudha here this year, said Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said on Sunday October 2.

He was speaking after launching ‘Kittur Chennammaji Vijaya Yatra’ in connection with the Kitturu Utsava organised by District Administration. He said, “The State Government has released Rs. 50 Crore grant to Kittur Development Authority. It has been 24 to 25 years since the Kitturu Utsava began, yet festival has been facing hiccups from time to time, he said and added after the BJP Government came to power an order was issued to celebrate this festival across the State.

A decision has been taken to strengthen the dilapidated Chennamma’s palace in Kittur and also build a new palace next to it, CM Bommai added.
