Sir, I would like to draw the attention of Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) authorities and MLA S.A. Ramdas towards the bad condition of the road that leads to Law Courts from Ballal Circle. This road, called as “Nara-saraja Road,” passing in front of Shiva temple, is in a very pathetic condition since the last 4…

Sir, This is not a first incident. The performance of Indian Railways is poor at several places and a lot of coordination is required. These are all small actions which can be taken at station-level but Railways never bothered about passenger convenience. Recently I travelled from Yesvantpur to Kacheguda in  Indore Express.

However, a new concern has now arisen after the road works. Now, the smooth, black…

This system, introduced in 2016, has been a great asset to the students and general public by providing a convenient and affordable mode of transportation. However, lately, the services provided at the docking stations have been…
