Shahapur, Karnataka

Shahapur is a city and taluka headquarter located in the Yadgir district of Indian state of Karnataka.

In support of this name there is historical evidence such as the sobriquet of the Vijayanagara Kingdom's last ruler Ramaraya (son-in-law of Srikrishna Devaraya), who was also called "Sagara Sankramanaraya".

[citation needed] After the Muslim attack, the name of the city was changed to Nusratabad.

The area between Krishna and Bhima rivers is called "Sagara Nadu".

One of the highlights of this beautiful place is the panoramic view of the surrounding landscape from the top of the fort.
