Sri Ramotsava Grand cultural events from Mar. 25 to Apr.4

Mysuru: Perhaps the oldest institution in its category, Sri Ramabhyudaya Sabha Charitable Trust is continuing to engage itself in its religious activity since more than a century.

Popularly called Moole (corner) Ramamandira, it has restricted its religious activity to its original precincts. However, to enlarge its annual activities related to classical music, the Sabha has thought it fit to put up a spacious rain-protected pandal in the large open space of the nearby Alamma Choultry and this is the fourth year of celebrations in this venue.

As usual, this year ten grand music programmes and one dance programme have been planned at Alamma Choultry between  6.30 pm and 9.30 pm daily.
