HARAPANAHALLI IS ONE OF THE MOST BACKWARD AREA IN THE KARNATAKA STATE.THE LIFE OF THE PEOPLE HERE IS DEPENDENT ON RAIN.THERE IS NO TIMELY RAIN AND THIS AREA ALWAYS SUFFERS FROM FAMINE.SO THE PEOPLE HERE MIGRATE TO CITIES FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS IN A YEAR.SO THE CIVILIZATION HERE HAS NOT DEVELOPED ACCORDING TO THE EVENTS.AS THE DEVELOPED ZILLA KENDRA MEDIA HAS IGNORED SUCH BACKWARD AREA, OUR ACTIVITIES ARE HOODWINKED BY THE MEDIA PUBLICITY.BUT OUR AREA DOESN’T LACK FROM FOLK CULTURE. HARAPANAHALLI FOR 324 YEARS HAS BEEN CONSIDERED AS THE EXCELLENT, EMINENT, VALIANT ADMINISTRATION IN SOUTH INDIA UNDER PALEGAARA ADMINISTRATION.IT WAS FAMOUS FOR CULTURE, LITERATURE. AS TIME PASSED HARPANAHALLI NOW HAS LOST ITS CULTURAL GRANDEUR AND HAS ATTAINED A SORROWFUL STAGE. EVEN IN THIS CONDITION, TO BRING BACK THE LOST GLORY AND REMINISCENCES OF THE PAST AND TO MAKE HARAPANAHALLI AS THE CULTURAL CENTRE, OUR ADARSHA MAHILA MANDALI FORMED DUE TO THE COMMENDABLE WORK OF WOMEN AND DUE TO THEIR INTRESTS IN DRAMA, MUSIC AND VARIOUS OTHER ARTS IS, AT PRESENT UNDER ITS ORGANISATION, GIVING VARIOUS NEW PERFORMANCES DIRECTED BY EXPERIENCED N.S.D GRADUATES.THE GROUP IN THIS DIRECTION IS WALKING IN LONG STRIDES.
