Sir, Consequent upon publishing of my letter in this column twice some months ago, the authorities came up with tarring of a portion of the road (3rd A Cross, in front of Sukrutha PU College) in Dattagalli which was damaged because of movement of trucks loaded heavily with M-sand, bricks and stones that are dumped,…
Four spiritual paths and four pillars of democracy
August 6, 2022Sir, KBG’s Abracadabra titled “Swami Vivekananda’s vision for future of India, as I understand -1” in yesterday’s Star of Mysore made an interesting read. I was reminded of the famous saying “Ninnannu neenu tilidiko/tiddiko, ade neenu jagattige maadabahudaada dodda seve” by Swami Shivananda. I was also reminded of Swami Vivekananda’s famous saying that, “So long…
Four spiritual paths and four pillars of democracy
August 6, 2022Sir, This refers to KBG’s Abracadabra titled “Swami Vivekananda’s vision for future of India, as I understand -1” in yesterday’s Star of Mysore. Just like Swami Vivekananda gave four spiritual paths for our salvation, after Independence the Constitution has given four pillars to our country to stand firmly on them democratically so that all Indians…
Make two-way traffic rule at Ring Road Under-bridges
August 5, 2022Sir, The recent tragic accident on Outer Ring Road (ORR), near GRS Fantasy Park, where a woman was fatally knocked down by a trailer lorry is an eye-opener to all.

Woes of train travellers
August 3, 2022Sir, The South Western Railway (SWR) seems to have no value for time. Most of the trains arrive at a good speed from Bengaluru and stop outside Mysuru Railway Station waiting for clearance. Many a times I have seen trains waiting for more than 20-25 minutes for clearance to enter the platform. In fact today…

More on missing rear number plates
August 1, 2022Sir, I fully concur with the views expressed by Chandrahas in this column recently. I too observe that auto drivers on the pretext of taking left turn jump signals. Many autos in city plying near Ring Roads neither have tail lamps nor number plates. Seldom drivers wear uniform and courtesy is totally missing. Also many…
Provide traffic lights and safe walker-friendly footpaths
July 31, 2022Sir, I was born and brought up in this beautiful city and was a resident of Yadavagiri. I am now a regular visitor. Over the last 3 decades, it is apparent that traffic in Mysuru has compounded. I appreciate the many changes the local Government has made to the city. That said, there is always…
Poorly developed MCC online tax payment site
July 30, 2022Sir, The MCC online tax payment site is very difficult to navigate. Only by knowing PID, it is easy to retrieve data. First time online tax-payers have to struggle a lot as they have to search using the Ward number plus property number. Lot of people would not know what is the Ward No., especially…
