Over 2200 years ago, deep within the Hathigumpha cave in Odisha, an inscription by Emperor Kharavela marked the earliest known written mention of "Bharatvarsha"!
This powerful king of Kalinga wasn't just a fierce warrior who defeated the Satavahanas and marched into Magadha-he was also a great patron of Jainism and builder of temples, canals, and cities.
His rock-cut message in Brahmi script still echoes the glory of ancient India.
History carved in stone. Legacy that lives on.
