Kannada Rajyothsava – 2020

The Rajyotsava is celebrated not only by Hindus but Muslims and Christians as well, as it is not a religious festival but one that marks the unity of the state.

This was the day in 1956 when all the Kannada language-speaking regions of South India were merged to form the state of Karnataka.

The state of ‘Mysore’ was formed on November 1, 1956, by an amalgamation of all Kannada speaking districts across South India.

However, the name ‘Mysore’ was not accepted by some regions and after a prolonged discussion, it was again renamed to ‘Karnataka’ on November 1, 1973.

The Rajyotsava day is listed as a government holiday in the state of Karnataka and is celebrated by Kannadigas across the world.

Rajarajeswari Medical College and Hospital celebrated ‘Kannada Rajyotsava’ by hosting the flag in the Campus.
