I am not able to read the link pages of Kavyadas article ,Each page is opening with garbaled english letters and not on Kannada font.I am able to read all the other pages of Kavitaa ,except allthe pages of Kavyadas life.Please inform how to rectify this Note: Thanks for your feedback. These pages were online before the advent of unicode font. Those who have baraha fonts uploaded into their system can view these files. We have already started converting these files into unicode, so that you will not face any problem in the future. Editor
