Bengaluru, Jan 30: BJP legislator representing Moodbidri constituency, Umanath Kotian, made a strong pitch to rename Mangaluru airport as Koti Chennayya airport.
Raising the topic during the zero hour at the assembly session on Friday January 29, Kotian noted that currently the airport in the city has been known as Adani International Airport. Mentioning that there has been widespread resentment for naming the airport after Adani in the coast, he urged the name to be changed into Koti Chennayya airport in honour of the valiant, legendary heroes of Tulunadu, Koti and Chennayya.

Harikrishna Bantwal, president, Koti Chennayya Janmastala Sanchalana Trust, in Mangaluru on Saturday.
The Koti Chennayya Janmastala Sanchalana Trust is committed to bringing Padumale in to prominence in Puttur Taluk - the birthplace of the revered twins Koti Chennayya and their mother Deyi Baideti – which has remained in darkness for decades, said Trust president Harikrishna Bantwal.
Speaking with reporters, Mr. Bantwal said the Trust has already finished the renovation of the ‘samadhi’ of Deyi Baidethi and it will be formally opened by the end of April. The Trust will then take up construction of Bammeragudi, which will be followed by development of Kovethoota – the birthplace of Deyi Baidethi. It will take the assistance of the State government to acquire the 8 acre land where the revered twins performed kambala (the race of buffaloes in the slushy field).
