| Receiving the President's Award |
Saahithya Koota was founded by late Shri. Y.S. Gundappa, a winner of The President's Award for teaching. He received the award from the former President Shri S.Radhakrishnan. Since then it has been a nonstop weekly Saturday programs running into its 55th year. By starting Saahithya Koota he provided a platform for many speakers, singers, entertainers,etc. The topics of the speakers varied from philosophy to politics,science to cinema,etc . This was, and still is, a stage that gave the speakers the freedom to speak about almost anything and everything. Similar to the Speaker's Corner, in Hyde park, London. Saahithya Koota is still encouraging budding artists of all kind and running it's weekly Saturday program at Shishuvihaara, behind central library, in the exemplary path shown by YSG. Thanks to the efforts of Shri.Y.G.Anantha Shastry(son of YSG), and Shri G. Jayaram. Chintamani is really proud to have a podium with a great legacy.
