Kannada Prabha daily newspaper and Asianet Suvarna News collaborates with the Karnataka Tourism Department to undertake the mega project of identifying and promoting the ‘Seven Wonders of Karnataka’.

Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai announced the ‘Seven Wonders of Karnataka’ on February 25, which represents the best of the state’s land and water, forest and sea, faith and science, architecture and sculpture, and history and heritage.

In the ceremonial event, the chosen wonders were awarded a state certificate, which was received by the respective district commissioners who are expected to submit a blueprint development report to upgrade the facilities at these places. The list of sites included in the wonders are Hirebenakal Rock Tombs, Hampi, Gomateshwara, Gol Gumbaz, Mysore Palace, Jog Falls, and Netrani Island.

Anand Singh, Tourism Minister, Karnataka, said, “Since I have taken the state tourism office, a number of development programmes have been initiated in tourism hotspots. Still, there is much more to do. The project of the Seven Wonders of Karnataka should be eternally kept alive. But, the legislative assembly elections are upon us shortly. It is the nature of politics for parties to change and power to shift hands.There should be a commitment to continue protecting and promoting important tourism centers. In this, public cooperation is most important. It doesn’t matter who is in power, the district commissioners and tourism department officials should undertake the responsibility unfailingly.”
