The preceding nine days of Navarathri have celebrations starting only after six days. The sixth day is in honour of goddess Saraswathi. Eight day is dedicated to Durga and Ninth day is for Lakshmi, goddess of wealth. On tenth day a grand spectacular Procession is held which starts from Mysore Palace and ends in Bannimantap.

  • Karnataka Tourism Vision Group 2014 Report
    Karnataka Tourism Vision group 2014 report KARNATAKA TOURISM VISION GROUP (KTVG) Recommendations to the GoK: Jan 2014 Task force KTVG Karnataka Tourism Vision Group 2014 Report 1 FOREWORD Tourism matters. As highlighted in the UN WTO 2013 report, Tourism can account for 9% of GDP (direct, indirect and induced), 1 in 11 jobs and 6% of world exports. We are all aware of amazing tourist experiences globally and the impact of the sector on the economy of countries. Karnataka needs to think big, think like a Nation-State if it is to forge ahead to realise its immense tourism potential. The State is blessed with natural and historical advantage, which coupled with a strong arts and culture ethos, can be leveraged to great advantage. If Karnataka can get its Tourism strategy (and brand promise) right and focus on promotion and excellence in providing a wholesome tourist experience, we believe that it can be among the best destinations in the world. The impact on job creation (we estimate 4.3 million over the next decade) and economic gain (Rs. 85,000 crores) is reason enough for us to pay serious attention to focus on the Tourism sector. The Government of Karnataka had set up a Tourism Vision group in Oct 2013 consisting of eminent citizens and domain specialists to advise the government on the way ahead for the Tourism sector. In this exercise, we had active cooperation from the Hon. Minister of Tourism, Mr. R.V. Deshpande; Tourism Secretary, Mr. Arvind Jadhav; Tourism Director, Ms. Satyavathi and their team. The Vision group of over 50 individuals met jointly in over 7 sessions during Oct-Dec 2013.

  • Maleru (ಮ಺ಲ ೇರು माले셁) Mystery Resolved
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 20, Issue 5, Ver. V (May. 2015), PP 06-27 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Scheduling of Tribes: Maleru (ಮ಺ಲ ೇರು माले셁) Mystery Resolved V.S.Ramamurthy1 M.D.Narayanamurthy2 and S.Narayan3 1,2,3(No 422, 9th A main, Kalyananagar, Bangalore - 560043, Karnataka, India) Abstract: The scheduling of tribes of Mysore state has been done in 1950 by evolving a list of names of communities from a combination of the 1901 Census list of Animist-Forest and Hill tribes and V.R.Thyagaraja Aiyar's Ethnographic glossary. However, the pooling of communites as Animist-Forest & Hill tribes in the Census had occurred due to the rather artificial classification of castes based on whether they were not the sub- caste of a main caste, their occupation, place of residence and the fictitious religion called ‘Animists’. It is not a true reflection of the so called tribal characteristics such as exclusion of these communities from the mainstrream habitation or rituals. Thus Lambáni, Hasalaru, Koracha, Maleru (Máleru ಮ಺ಲ ೇರು माले셁‘sic’ Maaleru) etc have been categorized as forest and hill tribes solely due to the fact that they neither belonged to established castes such as Brahmins, Vokkaligas, Holayas etc nor to the occupation groups such as weavers, potters etc. The scheduling of tribes of Mysore state in the year 1950 was done by en-masse inclusion of some of those communities in the ST list rather than by the study of individual communities.
