Sir, The Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) seems to have orphaned Vijayanagar 3rd Stage residents. Thanks to MUDA, which is yet to handover the property to the civic body, garbage cleaning is not carried out regularly in this layout. Also the drainage near Mulakanadu Bhavan in the area is overflowing since the past one week and …
