  • 1. Earlier PWD and Khadi Gramodyuo offices were located at Ramatirth. 2. Currently an "International palace school" is established at the Ramatirth palace buildings. New buildings have been added for current utility. The management of the school is led by Ex MP and current MLC of Karnataka, Mr Suddu Nyamegouda.

  • It's truly a beautiful palace and place to visit in the evening. My maternal background belongs to jamkhandi, Jambukeshwar galli. Reminds me, how in the evening I used to hold hand of my grandpa and visit the market area and visiting each temple returning back home. I feel proud about this developed city, my mom did her high school from Shakuntala girls and PB High school. Later in the college, Darbar hall the renowned place for all heart throbbing singers. Even today, I have the essence of love in my heart that my roots belong here.
