old method of offering banana, dates and coconut to wheels of rath discarded to Lord Kottureshwara from last year( New Rath built last year). More than five to six lacs people gather for car festival.
Local politicians and MP, MLAs also take part in this car festival. They know about the pending railway project connecting Harihar to Hospet via this holy place Kotturu since more than three decades.

Hope for the best at least this year. ( As parliment general elections in April )
