CHINTAMANI GETS A DOUBLE BONANZA

The congress party has given Chintamani a double bonanza in the cabinet.Chintamani, which is in Chickaballapura district falls in a Kolar parliamentary constituency.In the recently held parliamentary elections, the victorious candidiates,Mr K.H.Muniyappa from Kolar and Mr Veerappa Moily from Chickaballapur, have been chosen as ministers in the Dr.Manmohan Singh's cabinet.Mr K.H.Muniyappa is a minister of state for railways and Mr Veerappa Moily was sworn in as the law minister.CC and the citizens of Chintamani have high expectations from these two leaders.Hope they make best use of this opportunity and wish they make progress as their mantra.What better could we ask for?

A century old structure.

This is a 100 years old structure in the heart of Chintamani, off double road, in front of Government Girls Middle School(boys high school few decades ago). This was built to provide water to the passersby, and was used to that purpose for a long time.The Government Girls high School which was called 'Musafir Kkana'(travellers bunglow) is just opposite to this structure,and the old bus stand adjucent to this.'Kurubara Akkayyamma Memorial-1909' is now surrounded by road side shops which blocks its view.When CC wanted to know the history of the structure, it strangely found that the records of this structure is not available with the government minicipal office.This probably is the oldest public structure in Chintamani? CC hereby requests its readers to provide any information that could throw light on this peace of building in Chintamani.
