CM Bommai unveiled Chhatrapati Shivaji statue at Rajahansagad

He inaugurated the statue of Shivaji Maharaj constructed at Rajahansagadh in Belgaum Rural Constituency.

Later, he said, "I am very happy that the statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj has been dedicated. Our government has given a lot of encouragement to tourism.

Chief Minister Basavaraja Bommai challenged Siddaramaiah that he will bring him tomorrow and inaugurate the Shivaji statue even though he had released one rupee grant for the development of Rajahansagad Fort during his tenure as Chief Minister from 2013-2018.

We protect places like Hoysalas, Kadambas and original sculptures. At the same time, the CM said that a special grant has been earmarked in the budget for the construction of the corridor.

5. crores for the development of the fort here during the period of our government. 50 lakhs for the installation of the idol. They said that they have given it. In 2008, CM Yeddyurappa sanctioned Rs 14 crore for the development of Rajahansagad Fort. Janardana Reddy was the Minister of Tourism Department then. As a result of the efforts of MLA Sanjay Patila, a grant was released to provide infrastructure in the fort premises. He announced that an additional grant of 5 crores will be given in addition to the grant already earmarked for the development of the fort.

Still on March 5, local MLA Lakshmi Hebbalkar again spoke about the inauguration of Shivaji idol, it is a government program, so we will decide the day of inauguration. Today is the inauguration. Will not come to inaugurate again. He said that if his party program is needed, let him do it.

District In-charge Minister Govinda Karajola, MP Mangala Angadi, MLAs Ramesh Jarakiholi, Aneela Benake, Abhay Patil, Regional Commissioner MG Hiremath Kannada and Deputy Director of Culture Department Vidyavathy Bhajantri were present.
