The event, organized by the Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath, features the theme of 'The Girl Child' this year. The theme aims to raise awareness about the need to stand in solidarity against the abuse of women and girls and promote their rights.
This year's Chitra Santhe is showcasing the works of around 1,500 artists from various parts of the country. A major highlight of the event is a 35-foot sculpture of a girl child's face, crafted from cardboard sheets.
Siddaramaiah praised the Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath for its role in promoting the state's cultural heritage and traditions through art, calling the event a matter of pride for Bengaluru.
