点评:Near Gokarna is the huge Mirjan Fort spread over 4 hectares of land. Very riveting is the manner in which the memory of Rani Chennabhairadevi is tied to this fort. The queen reigned over the Gersoppa kingdom from 1552 to 1606, for over five decades making the fort an inseparable part of her reign. In Karnataka’s historical memory, perhaps Rani Kittur Chennamma is better known for ruling in the early 19th century, directly rebelling against the British East India Company, but Rani Chennabhairadevi was equally brilliant. Historical fort, very popular with the locals. There were several Gen Z's all over taking pics.
Read my article about the Fort which appeared in the Deccan Herald dated July 30, 2026.
ASI as usual was at its incompetent best. The premises are sloppy and badly maintained. High time ASIs role and responsibilities were thoroughly reviewed and responsibility fixed
翻译:在戈卡纳附近,有一座占地4公顷的巨大米里詹堡。拉尼·切纳巴伊拉德维女王的传奇往事与这座堡垒紧密相连,令人津津乐道。这位女王从1552年至1606年统治着格尔索帕王国,长达五十余年之久,使得该堡垒成了她统治时期不可或缺的一部分。在卡纳塔克邦的历史记忆中,或许更为人熟知的是19世纪初的拉尼·基图尔·切纳玛——她曾直接率领民众反抗英国东印度公司。不过,拉尼·切纳巴伊拉德维同样才华出众。这座历史悠久的堡垒深受当地人喜爱,到处都能看到千禧一代们在拍照留念。
请阅读我于2026年7月30日在《德干先驱报》上发表的关于这座堡垒的文章。
印度考古调查局依旧表现得极其无能:整个园区杂乱无章且维护不善。是时候对考古调查局的职责与责任进行全面审查并明确其责任归属了。
