Mangaluru, Jan 18: India is a land of vibrant history, rich culture and glorious monuments and heritage. Every Indian is proud of his/her country. But many of us are hardly aware of Rani ki Vav, Ramappa temple, Auroville, Buland Darwaza, Saraswathi Mahal Library, Warli Painting, Dhanu Jatra, Keibul Lamjao National Park, Sa Re Ga Ma Pillars, Kalavantin Durg, Sati Handprints, Marutsakha, Gandikota Grand Canyon, Neelakurinji, and the list goes on endlessly.
Our history books or the internet world very rarely speak about these lesser-known facts about our rich country. Only a few of them are usually highlighted now and then. Many of us are unaware of many of these facts. However there lies a desire inside every Indian to know as many facts as possible of our great country, but many are clueless and need to be shown the path to learning more about India. As Indians, it is mesmerising to know the depth and breadth, the rare known artefacts in our own country.

Each of these three books consists of 111 reasons to say ‘Mera Bharath Mahan’.
