The doors of the historic Hasanamba Temple in Hassan were opened around 12 p.m. on November 2, 2023, to mark the inauguration of the Hasanamba festival.
The temple is opened to devotees only during this festival of the year. Thousands of people from different parts of the State visit the temple to get a ‘darshana’ of the deity during the festival.
The doors were opened in the presence of Minister for Cooperation K.N. Rajanna, legislators, and senior officers of the Hassan district administration. Hassan district administration has made arrangements for the smooth conduct of the festival. Around 1,200 policemen have been deployed for the event.
The temple will be closed on November 15.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
