Delegates to the national women’s convention organised by Jagatika Lingayat Mahasabha adopted some resolutions, including recognising Lingayat as a religion, in Belagavi on Sunday.
The convention thanked Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Cabinet members for declaring Basavanna as the cultural leader of the State and for renaming the park in Shivamogga as Allama Prabhu Park and Kittur taluk as Kittur Channamma taluk.
A resolution was passed urging the State government to develop the resting place of Basavanna’s sister Akka Nagamma in Tarikere and the memorial of Nuliya Chandaiya and other Sharanas in the region.
