A fact from Lalitha Mahal appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 13 January 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Lalitha Mahal (pictured), a palace in Mysore, India, was built in 1921 on orders of the Maharaja of Mysore for exclusive stay of the Viceroy of India?

Deletion

I have deleted the following sentence since I could not find any authoritative source to corroborate it. "It was built with the help of a contractor by name B. Munivenkatappa, who was honored with the title "Rao Saheb" by the Maharaja for his achievements." Prakashsubbarao
