Eminent historians, researchers and academicians from India and abroad will turn up for the South Indian History Congress (SIHC) beginning at University College here on Saturday.

There will be discussions, knowledge sharing, and the forging of collaborations that promise to pave the way for innovative approaches to understanding south Indian history.
