On Sunday, new facilities were inaugurated at Sri Gavisiddeshwara Gurukul in Kolur-Katralli village, Koppal district, Karnataka, India, aimed at supporting free education for girls. This initiative, led by the Sri Shivashanthaveera Swami Charitable Trust of Gavi Mutt, includes a new PU university college building, hostel facilities, and a dining-cum-function hall. Abhinava Gavisiddheshwara Swami of Gavi Mutt stated that this reflects a long-standing commitment to education, particularly for rural and underprivileged girls. The gurukul has been instrumental in providing free accommodation and food to thousands of students, and the new facilities are expected to enhance educational access in the region. Educationist Prabhakar Kore and former IAS officer Chinmayi highlighted the role of such institutions in promoting education and social service, noting that access to free education and hostels is vital for encouraging rural students to pursue higher studies.
