'''Kittur''', | '''Kittur''', historically as '''Kittoor''', is a ''[[taluka]]'' in the [[Belgaum district]] of the [[India]]n state of Karnataka. It was part of [[Bailhongal]] taluka but was declared as an independent taluka on 23{{nbsp}}October 2012 by the Chief Minister of Karnataka on the inauguration of Kittur Utsav. It is 177th Taluk of Karnataka State. It is a place of historical importance because of the armed rebellion of [[Kittur Chennamma]] (1778–1829), [[Rani]] of the State of Kittur against the [[British East India Company]], during which a British Commissioner, [[St John Thackeray]] was killed. | ||
