Gangavathi city has close to 1.6 lakh population and the taluk close to 3 lakhs (this after Kanakagiri and Karatagi got separated, otherwise the number stood at 6lakhs), the city also serves as sub district for judiciary and administration
Given the potential, a new district ‘Kishkinda’ is being proposed with Gangavathi being designated as its district headquarters which would potentially include the taluks Kanakagiri, Karatagi, Kampli, Tavaragera and Sindhanur. This would help the people from surrounding areas drastically reduce their travel time to their districts currently and also will help the city’s growth in future to potentially host the Kishkinda tourism for better.
