KFG was home to over 30000 mineworkers and their families. The company ran the mines until 1965 which were later taken over by Mysore’s Government, which hired John Taylor & Sons as mining consultants. He established the deepest and most productive gold mine in the world. John Taylor III took control of the mines in the year 1880.

However, Kolar Gold Field’s modern success is generally attributed to the firm John Taylor & Sons. Over the course of history, many people tried their luck at finding gold. The land was mined there for over 2000 years. The resourceful mining area is located in the Kolar District of Karnataka, South India,100 km from Bengaluru, and is popular as ‘Little England’. Well, as mesmerizing as it may sound, the Kolar Gold Fields are turning barren as the days pass. Come, take a look at the past of ‘Little England’ residing in India with us! Imagine walking through fields of gold-embedded landscapes, shimmering and glittering under the sun. Not everyone who lays his hand on a girl is a man.Money may not grow on trees but Gold can surely be harvested from these beautiful Kolar Gold Fields. Not everyone who puts a finger on the trigger is a shooter, Mother is the greatest warrior in this world, The world running after selfishness does not stop for anyone, It cannot be ruled without knowing the depth of the ocean, I have not become a don by killing only ten or twelve people, The post doesn’t come just because of the address,Īnd this landmark does not even require a stamp, The one who comes to rule the city teaches the city about himself. He who comes to live in the city learns about it, If you hit the police a don as you will search, If you hit someone the police will search for you, Powerful people come from powerful places, When he was young, he had decided that he will become a brand. His mother had shown him the destination,īut he had to find the way to the destination,

Promise me, I don’t know how you will live,īut when death comes you will die becoming the most powerful and richest person in the world, When people have accepted, then who are you or who we are?Įveryone in the world says that without money one cannot live peacefully,īut no one says that without money one cannot die peacefully.

Then he must have achieved something big, If his picture has been etched in the stone, Rocking star Yash and to the outdated mine centre Kolar Gold Fields, located near Kolar district of Karnataka. This poem is dedicated to Rocky Bhai aka. Note: The quotes are inspired and adapted from 2018, 2022 Period-action films KGF: Chapter 1 and KGF: Chapter 2 respectively.
