The Karnataka government will hold a symbolic Assembly session at its second assembly house Belagavi today.

The session will start at 'Suvarna Vidhana Soudha', modeled on the Vidhana Soudha, the seat of legislature in Bengaluru, at 11 am.

Karnataka government had built a second assembly house at Belagavi, which is at the heart of the border dispute between the states. Once in a year the Karnataka government holds a session in Belagavi just to maintain its claim on the disputed Maratha-speaking territory.

Karnataka got hold of Maratha-speaking territory in 1956 during the reorganisation of states on linguistic lines.

There have been many skirmishes between the two states over the disputed territory,  the recent brawl between the two states created a state of panic due to which the transport facility between  the states got paralised.
