Power supply will be affected in different parts of Mangaluru city and Udupi district on Wednesday. The areas fed by 11 kV Eshwarakatte, Perara and Sunkadakatte feeders in Mangaluru will go without power supply between 10 a.m. and 4 a.m. Power supply will be affected between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. in areas fed by 11 kV Manchila, Someshwara, Thokkottu, Kotekar, Abbakka, Kuthar and Ullal feeders.

Foreign travellers from Persia, Europe and other parts of the world have chronicled the wealth of the place and the unique cultural mores of this kingdom built on the banks of the Tungabhadra river. There are fine descriptions to be found of its temples, farms, markets and trading links, remnants of which one can see in the ruins now. The Literature, architecture of this era continue inspire awe.
