Dharwad-based activist Mahadev Horatti has written to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah urging him to develop Kudalasangama on the lines of Ayodhya and Raj Ghat in New Delhi.
“Kudalasangama in Bagalkot district is one of the most sacred places in the country. Millions of Basava devotees visit the town every year. It is revered as the Aikyasthala of Basavanna. It needs to be developed further and promoted as a global destination,” the head of Basava Peace Mission said.
The Aikyasthala is located at the tail-end of the reservoir. Due to this, the river enters the holy place, during floods and increased backwaters, causing inconvenience to visitors. This should be avoided by building walls, he said.
