**Kalaburagi, February 4, 2025** – Gulbarga University’s Kannada Department has launched a new photo gallery and archive celebrating the literary heritage of Kalyana Karnataka. The initiative, spearheaded by Head of the Kannada Department Dr. H.T. Pote, features 160 photographs of notable writers from the region, along with a separate gallery dedicated to award recipients. An adjacent unused space has been transformed into a second gallery showcasing award-winning authors from the region.

The project extends beyond photography; Dr. Pote also plans to digitize 3,000 historically significant books written by authors from Kalyana Karnataka. He envisions this digital library as a crucial resource for researchers and history enthusiasts, preserving invaluable information about the region’s political, social, and cultural past. Dr. Pote, who was inspired by a similar gallery in England, worked several years on this project without institutional support. The archive is now a valuable reference point for anyone documenting the history of Kalyana Karnataka, and the department plans to continue expanding the collection with additional memorabilia.
