History & Significance
Kudalasangama in India is an important centre of pilgrimage for Lingayats, a religious denomination of Hinduism. It is located about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) from the Almatti Dam in Bagalkote district of Karnataka state. The Krishna River and Ghataprabha River merge here and flow east towards Srisailam in Andhra Pradesh. The Aikya Mantapa or the holy Samādhi of Basavanna, the founder of the Lingayatism along with Linga, which is believed to be self-born (Swayambhu), is here. The Kudala Sangama Development Board takes care of the maintenance and development.
