- Historians and researchers urged the public to preserve historical monuments at a heritage event held at SSK Rangamandira in Pavagada on Thursday.
- The event, called 'Save Historical Heritage', was organised by the Karnataka History Academy, Bharatiya Itihasa Sankalana Samiti, district researchers' association, and SSK educational institutions.
- Speakers said Pavagada taluk was once a rich region where dynasties including the Cholas, Pallavas, and Pandyas left their historical marks.
- Historians stated that forts, monuments, stepwells, and royal tombs in the town are being neglected, encroached upon, or destroyed.
- Preserving these monuments matters because, as speakers warned, local culture and heritage will disappear along with them.
What to watch next
- Whether the younger generation takes up documenting local history, as researcher H.M. Nagaraju urged
- Any steps by locals or authorities to protect the remaining forts, temples, and tombs from neglect and encroachment
