History of construction

VID2
The Suvarna Vidhana Soudha was constructed as a part of Karnataka's reiteration of its control over Belgaum in its inter state rivalry with maharastra for control of the district. While the proposal to build a legislature building in Belgaum to counter Maharashtra's claim to the area had been mooted several years ago,  after kumaraswamy became chife minister that the project gained momentum. In 2007, b.s.yaddyurappa, the then Deputy Chief Minister who held the finance portfolio allotted funds to build the new legislature building. While it was originally to have come up at Tilakwadi, it was subsequently relocated to its present location at the Halga-Bastwad area of Belgaum, 10 km from the city and just off the banglore-mumbai highway, which is a part of the golden quadrilateral project . The bhoomi puja for the original building was performed by the then Chief Minister, Kumaraswamy in 2007 while his successor, Yeddyurappa performed it for the construction of the building at its new venue in 2009.
Work began on the building in August 2009 and it was to have been completed in 18 months within an original budget of ₹ 2.30 billion. The pune based B.G. Shirke Construction Technology Pvt. Ltd. were given the contract to construct the building. There were repeated extensions of the deadline on account of tardy progress in construction. By August 2012, the cost of the building alone had reached ₹391 crore with estimates suggesting a final bill of nearly ₹5 billion(roughly USD 100 million) on its completion. The inauguration ceremony itself has been billed at ₹150 million.

Benefits Of Homeopathy

Benefits of Homeopathy 1. All Aspects of an Individual Patient Are Considered Homeopathy does not view an illness as just a collection of symptoms, but rather a reaction to a unique patient’s situation. Homeopathy treats all symptoms experienced by a patient including those that are “spiritual, emotional, mental and physical.” This means homeopathic treatments take into account things like chronic stress and beliefs about one’s ability to get better, which we now know are hugely important for overall health. 2. Low Doses of Natural Products Are Used Homeopathic remedies are not made using man-made drugs or chemicals, but rather made from things found in nature like trace minerals and herbs. They are normally used in very low doses, and are “gentle, subtle and powerful.” Compared to prescription drugs they carry a very low risk for addiction and only very rarely cause any negative side effects.
