Sir, I wish to bring to the notice of the authorities concerned for corrective action at RTO and/ or Traffic Police to prevent cases of vehicles, especially the new two-wheelers, being freely used on the roads without the registration number. The basic purpose of the registration number with its specification of size, colour and format…
Sir, International trade between various countries is a must for survival of all the nations and invariably there are trade imbalances. While India is exporting a lot of goods to other countries, it has a net trade deficit of about 47 Billion US Dollars with China! They are using this economic strength to bully us….
Sir, KBG’s Abracadabra titled ‘MOTHER’ published in Star of Mysore dated Aug. 8 was thought-provoking. I had tears in my eyes when I read that article. Two incidents have been narrated in the article. One is the outcome of materialistic approach towards our life under the influence of Western culture and the other incident of…
Sir, KBG’s Abracadabra on MOTHER was touching (SOM dated Aug. 8). His description of losing his mother in a way that needn’t have been was almost like a confession. We still haven’t found the answers as to why elders sometimes become stubborn and refuse to co-operate with their well-meaning children in taking care and end…

Sir, It is very unfortunate that a lot of women in Gokulam have stopped going on evening walks because of the alarming rise in the number of eve-teasing incidents. The area around Ex-MLA Ramdas’ house and near Lions Sevaniketan School are particularly unsafe due to lack of street-lights. Even girls as young as 11 years…

These idols are invariably coated with oil paints and metal paints which are very rich in heavy metals by chemical composition. Idols made out of PoP…
Sir, At present Electronic Clearing System (ECS) mode of payment is not available for Mysuru citizens to pay their monthly electricity and water bills. These Departments have opened many counters across the city to ensure that the waiting time for remitting bills by consumers are reduced. However, if the ECS is introduced by these Departments,…
Sir, It is very difficult to understand government policies and priorities, much more so in the case of Municipalities, particularly the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC). For instance, the MCC, which has long since completed the laying of a pukka footpath on the Southern side of Sahukar Channaiah road (having, among other buildings, the Saraswathipuram Police…
