This website was originally developed and launched in the Kannada language and was graciously inaugurated by Sri D. Sudhakar, Former Minister, Government of Karnataka on 1st November 2007 at Challakere, Chitradurga District.
The original website was developed by Raghavendra Padmashali, with its content written and compiled by Raghavendra Padmashali and B. V. Bharath Kumar.
As part of its latest upgrade, the website has undergone a complete redesign and comprehensive content revision. The entire website, including its structure, presentation, features, and content, has been updated and enhanced by Raghavendra Padmashali to provide a more informative, accessible, and engaging experience for visitors.
