The planetarium will be named after Swami Vivekananda to commemorate his 150th birth anniversary.

A sum of Rs 11 crore was sanctioned for this project by B S Yeddyurappa. It is leant that DV Sadananda Gowda has sanctioned an extra sum of Rs 13.5 crore which will be spent on upgrading technology.

    Everybody should under stand that, what people think the quarrel in the BJP,actually not and it difference of opinion. Only thing is this should have been solved within four wall. But due to some rogue channels this has been exaggerated and added with masala, and they try to spoil our state's name. We suuget all the media people to play a constructive roll in the democracy and not to have cheap journalism. This is not good for the media fraternity.
