K'taka: Savarkar's portrait installed at Hindalga prison in presence of Education Minister BC Nagesh
Belagavi: A portrait was installed inside the Hindalga jail in Belagavi on Thursday in the presence of Karnataka Education Minister BC Nagesh.
The move comes in the wake of demands from the right-wing Hindutva groups to install a portrait in the jail as they claimed the RSS ideologue was lodged in the Hindalga prison for 99 adys.
Savarkar was housed in the prison between April 4 to 13 July 1950.
A video showed Education Minister BC Nagesh taking part in the event when the portrait was installed inside the premises of jail. The video also showed a group of men garlanding the photo of Savarkar, showering flowers, and raising slogans.

Kozhikode (PTI): Three members of a family, including a girl, drowned in a river at Nadapuram in this district on Saturday, police said.
The tragic incident occurred when the family had gone to Puliyavu river near Nadapuram, to wash their clothes.
The deceased were identified as Ansar (43), his wife Suhada (39), and Isa Mariyam (8), daughter of Ansar's brother--all residents of Puliyavu here.
According to preliminary information, the child accidentally slipped into deep waters and Ansar and his wife attempted to rescue her.
But all three were also pulled in by the current and drowned.
The couple's children alerted the locals, who initiated rescue efforts.
Though they were pulled out of the water, their lives could not be saved, police said.
The bodies were shifted to the nearby state-run hospital and further procedures are underway, they added.
