Sir, Recently, another Vande Bharat Express train was started from Mysuru at 6 am. It was published in SOM that Vande Bharat is of little use to the common man and a Jan Shatabdi or Amrit Bharat Express should be started instead. Mysuru is considered a garage and a cleaning station. Due to the lack…

Sir, I needed an Encumbrance Certificate (EC) for my house property. Finding that Kaveri 2.0 software provides the opportunity to obtain the same online, I decided to employ it. I work more on my smartphone most of the time so I tried to access using Chrome browser. The software partially loads on the browser. Having…

Sir, This is a request to urgently address a persistent issue regarding the traffic signal lights opposite V.V Puram Police Station. For more than three months now, these lights have been operating intermittently, functioning for about a week before remaining non-functional for approximately ten days thereafter.

As the river flows downstream from the KRS Dam, it becomes increasingly polluted due to the actions of tourists and various…

Sir, I appreciate the initiative taken by our MP Yaduveer Wadiyar and others in cleaning Kukkarahalli Lake and its surroundings recently. However, have we not seen similar efforts in the past? Do we observe any long-term improvement from such efforts? There is no other way to keep our city clean except by imposing penalties on…

Sir, I am writing to propose a solution to the persistent traffic congestion around our city’s Sub-Urban Bus Stand, particularly during peak hours. The limited space at the existing Bus Stand, which serves as a hub for buses bound for many districts across Karnataka, is a primary issue. Overcrowding of buses and passengers has made…

Sir, For over a month, garbage has been accumulating in front of an abandoned house on Devaparthiva Road (BJP Office Road), with no action taken by Mysuru City Corporation (MCC). The waste is piled up in front of two long-abandoned and dilapidated houses, which have become havens for rats, and snakes, and a breeding ground…
