Abstract

Last week I was in the historic city of Vijayapura (earlier Bijapur) after almost 15 years. The Azim Premji Foundation has a team of over 15 members based in the district. The neglected city of Bijapur probably has the highest density of monuments in India which include the world famous Gol Gumbaz and Ibrahim Rouza. While the old monuments were a familiar sight, the rest of the city has undergone significant changes. One conspicuous change is the emergence of new hotels; they look outwardly sophisticated but their core operations are quite primitive, which is mostly attributed to lack of high quality training of their staff.
