Karnataka (ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ) is
a state in south western region of India, was formed on
1 November 1956, with the passage of the States Reorganisation Act.
Originally known as the State of
Mysore, it was renamed Karnataka in 1973. The capital and largest city is Bangalore (Bengaluru).
Karnataka is bordered by the Arabian
Sea and
the Laccadive
Seato the west, Goa to
the northwest, Maharashtra to
the north, Telangana to
the northeast, Andhra
Pradesh to
the east, Tamil
Naduto the southeast, and Kerala to
the southwest. The state covers an area of 191,976 square kilometres
(74,122 sq mi), or 5.83 percent of the total geographical area of
India. It is the seventh largest Indian state by area.
With 61,130,704 inhabitants at the 2011 census, Karnataka is the eighth largest state by
population, comprising 30 districts. Kannada,
one of the classical languages of
India, is the most widely spoken and official language of the state.
The two main river systems
of the state are the Krishna and
its tributaries, the Bhima, Ghataprabha, Vedavathi, Malaprabha, and Tungabhadra,
in the north, and the Kaveri and
its tributaries, the Hemavati, Shimsha, Arkavati, Lakshmana Thirtha and Kabini, in the south. Most of these rivers flow out
of Karnataka eastward into the Bay of
Bengal.
Though several etymologies have
been suggested for the name Karnataka, the generally accepted one is that Karnataka is derived from the Kannada words karu and nadu,
meaning "elevated land". Karu nadu may
also be read as karu,
meaning "black", and nadu,
meaning "region", as a reference to the black cotton
soil found
in the Bayalu Seeme region
of the state. The British used the word Carnatic, sometimes Karnatak,
to describe both sides of peninsular India, south of the Krishna.
With an antiquity that
dates to the paleolithic, Karnataka has been home to some of the
most powerful empires of ancient and
medieval India. The philosophers and musical bards
patronised by these empires launched socio-religious and literary movements
which have endured to the present day. Karnataka has contributed significantly
to both forms of Indian classical music, the Carnatic and Hindustani traditions.

anthem
(Naadageethe)
Jaya Bhaarata
Jananiya Thanujaate ( ಜಯ ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ)
is a Kannada poem, which was
composed by the Kannada`s 1st Jnanapit award winner poet Kuvempu. The poem was officially declared as the State anthem
(Naadageethe)
of the Indian state of Karnataka on
January 6, 2004.
The poem envisages a Karnataka that recognises its
position in the comity of Indian states, believes in peaceful co-existence with
her neighbour sisters, but at the same time maintains her self-respect and
dignity from a position of confidence and strength rather than insecurity and
fear. Here is the Naadageethe of Karunaadu....
