Sir, The manhole inside the Medical College Hostel (Men) compound abutting D. Subbaiah Road has been blocked since several days emanating unbearable stench to the residents of Premier Residency apartments. All our efforts to get it cleared by complaining to the Mysore City Corporation (MCC) and area Corporator are in vain. Hope at least now…

Sir, The Post Office of N.R. Mohalla is not doing any transactions from last few days. The reason given by the Post Master is failure of server. This has put the citizens into a lot of inconvenience. Even in this modern age it is taking such a long time to set things right. We request…

Sir, It is a pity that streetlights in and around APMC on Mysuru – Nanjangud Road do not burn at all. People waiting at the nearby bus stop are put to a lot of hardship due to this in catching buses as and when they come. Vehicle drivers too need to be very cautious to…

Sir,  It is with great anguish that I record here the unprofessional treatment meted out to well-meaning sincere tax-paying citizens of Mysuru, who are also part of Mysore Grahakara Parishat (MGP), the city-based NGO, which for the past 30 years has been a responsible organisation that has worked hand-in-hand with various Departments of the District…

Sir, The Roads from Vijayanagar Water Tank till Ring Road via Abhishek Circle and  from Water Tank till Trinity Circle are in a very worst condition for the past three months which is really pathetic. I am not sure whether the area Corporators take necessary action to repair them and make it motorable. This road…

Sir, During early years of opening of Garuda Mall on Albert Victor (AV) Road near K.R. Circle, cars were allowed to enter the basement of the Mall to park during shopping. Of late the entrance of the parking lot has been shifted to the road behind the Mall. However, even today many cars try to…

Sir, The lackadaisical attitude of CESC employees is just shocking.  Most of the streetlight poles  on Devaraja Urs Road have open electrical junction boxes with wires protruding outside the box.  It is extremely dangerous to  walk close to these light poles.  In some junction boxes, the wires are secured with an insulation tape and in…

Sir, When I go for morning walk with Prof. Sheik Ali, we see a board at the entrance gate indicating that it is Jayalakshmi Vilas Mansion and below it is written Museum Complex (see picture). If there is no indication about the visiting hours how can visitors know about it? It is not known whether…

Sir, The problem of street dogs is not limited to the streets of the city. Their presence is seen on the platforms of the City Railway Station too. At least three dogs were seen on the same platform during my recent visit to the Station. Their total number may be a wild guess. According to…
