The proposed move to shift the Centre of Excellence for Studies in Classical Kannada (CESCK) in the century-old Jayalakshmi Vilas Mansion got fresh traction with the elected representatives and varsity officials inspecting the premises on Saturday.
The inspection comes ahead of the scheduled visit of Minister for Kannada and Culture Mr. V. Sunil Kumar next week to inspect the premises.
The CESCK which was functioning under Central Institute of Indian Languages (CIIL) till recently despite securing autonomous status a few years ago is currently functioning from the premises of the National Centre for History of Science building.
