February 25, 2023Sir, A stretch of Bogadi road from Kukkarahalli Lake junction leading to the signal light near Manasagangothri campus is badly in need of a traffic interceptor. The motorists, especially four-wheelers, ply in opposite directions at a reckless speed overtaking other relatively slow moving vehicles. This may prove fatal if the driver of vehicles coming from…

Unscientific flight schedule from Mysore Airport
February 22, 2023Sir, Mysore Airport, also known as Mandakalli Airport, is literally not serving the purpose. It’s neither helping the officials nor the tourists and to some extent a few cities are convenient for business establishments. Let’s talk about Mysuru – Hyderabad flights. Both Indigo and Alliance Air flights depart at 19:40 hours (7.40 pm) and 19:50…

Violation of lane discipline: Traffic Cops must act
February 17, 2023Sir, Of late a new mode of traffic violation is being practised by two-wheelers and three-wheelers. Instead of following lane discipline at traffic signals, they move to the right hand side of the road medians, facing the incoming vehicles. As soon as the traffic signal turns green, they are in a tearing hurry to drive…
