President’s Message
Dear Esteemed Members,
From early 1900s, Dakshina Kannada district has been known for its famous MANGALORE tiles, cashew industries, Beedi industries and most importantly as a trade Centre because of its natural sea port and railway station which started in 1907. This district has also been brewing some of the finest financial institutions in the country. Subsequently, MANGALORE has developed into an educational hub, where people from all across the country and the world come to study.
