Sir, Morning walkers in and around K.C. Layout and Siddartha Layout are anxious and fear while taking a walk via K.C. Layout Main Road, especially the cross road of K.C. Layout and the road towards Helipad as more than half a dozen street dogs are present. We request the MCC authorities to address the issue…
Sir, Sometime back plastic lane- dividers were fixed on city roads to have a smooth flow of traffic by not blocking the other side of the road and to inculcate lane discipline in vehicle-users. They occupy less space and unlike concrete blocks have better safety to the road-users in the event of crash. However, most…
Sir, One thing that really made Dr. Javeed Nayeem’s article worth reading was the way the writer noted about the panoramic sight that can be viewed when the train travels in moderate speed (SOM dated Sept.8). The variety of sights is something fabulous and endless literally. The landscapes, the village life from afar, sometimes the…
Sir, Last week, I travelled by Tipu Express from Mysuru to Bengaluru. I purchased second class A/c Chair Car ticket by paying around Rs.325. But immediately after boarding the train, I was totally disappointed by the type of individual seats provided in that particular bogie. The reason behind was the seat specifications — as I…
Sir, This refers to the report “Get set for a bumpy ride this Dasara” in Star of Mysore dated 3.9.2017. The pavement repair work near Kote Maramma temple has already been approved and the work was delayed due to intermittent rains. The work will commence shortly.

Sir, India, “the greatest living democracy in the world” with a ‘flawed democracy’ is replete with quotes from eminent personalities who shaped our country’s freedom and paved way for its future social, cultural and economic development. The golden quote by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar on the occasion of his address to the nation on the first…
Sir, The Ring Road stretch from Seshadripuram College to Hinkal junction that includes the major road leading to Rane Madras is plunged into darkness since the past three days as none of the lights are switched on. Earlier the lights would go off at 11 pm but now there is darkness all through the evening….
Sir, Dasara is fast approaching. We aspire for more and more visitors, including foreigners. We want them to enjoy and appreciate a cleanest city, Mysuru. But look at how ugly the garbage collecting autos appear first thing in the morning. The picture above is from Ramakrishnanagar First Main. The same is the story in other…
Sir, Recently I re-read the 1958 R.K. Narayan’s classic novel “The Guide” and also watched on YouTube the 1965 Dev Anand’s film of the same name. The book is an all-time best- seller as it has had nearly 80 reprints and the film, of course, was a box office super hit. I remember seeing the…
Sir, A look at the present condition of Nanjangud’s two major roads (RP Road and MGS Road) is highly horrifying. Work on replacing age-old open drainage with the box-type ones is on. One side of the road is already dug but the excavated loose earth is haphazardly dumped at the very centre, blocking traffic movement…
