Sir, The bus service on Ring Road needs to be improved. Now we have two bus depots in the opposite sides of Ring Road — plying two buses from Vijayanagar Depot and two more from Mahadevapura Bus Depot with 15 minutes gap. The additional bus service would be of great help to people who work…

Sir, The areas in and around Vijayanagar Water Tank are in complete shambles. Roads are ripped off for more than a year now. The Park stretch between Vidyavardhaka Engineering College and temporary food street is in a neglected condition with overgrown shrubs and the place used as open urinals. By-lanes near the area are make-shift…

Sir, Now almost all commercial establishments welcome their customers with a hand sanitiser  — either pedal-operated or hand-pressed.  In some establishments it is seen that the pedal-operated  sanitiser  will have the sanitiser  container fixed to the frame of the machine, which is correct and safe.  But in some places the sanitiser container is not fixed…

Sir, Apropos to the news item MCC Style… Walk, Talk and Collect Tax in SOM dated Dec.2, we do agree that shop owners need to pay the tax on time. We may also note that many thousands of houses in Mysuru — which are completed in construction and people residing since 2014 — are not…

Sir, It is noticed that many goods vehicles fix an extra heavy rod behind their vehicles to act as an accident barrier. This may protect the vehicles from severe damage in case the vehicles are hit from the rear side. Most of these rods mask the registration number plate of the vehicles and in case…

Sir, It was sad to read the death of a pillion rider in a recent road accident near Siddalingapura on Bengaluru-Mysuru Highway (Star of Mysore dated Dec.3), when a car hit their two-wheeler from behind. The head of the pillion hit the median resulting in injury.  It is not clear from the report whether the…
