A month-long Constitution Awareness Campaign launched on January 26 has reached the 100th village in Dharwad district with the Constitution Rathayatra entering Saunshi village in Kundgol taluk.

As the campaign vehicle entered the village, it was given a grand welcome by an all-woman Dollu Kunita troupe, women carrying Poornakumbha, volunteers of Seva Dal, schoolchildren and residents.

Accompanying the jatha subsequently, the students and other participants raised slogans praising the Constitution and architect of the Constitution B.R. Ambedkar.
