“Basaveshwara, one of the leading social reformers of the 12th century Vachana revolution, fought for equality, fraternity, social justice and freedom of speech. All these principles are incorporated in the Constitution and even in the United Nations Human Rights Council,” Vice-Chancellor of Central University of Karnataka Battu Satyanarayana has said.
He was addressing a gathering at the valedictory function of the online lecture series on Vachana literature and its interface with other disciplines.
The lecture series, organised by the university in association with Sasava Samithi at Anubhava Mantapa in Kalaburagi, was held between April 30 and May 28, 2022.
