Sir, This is a request to urgently address a persistent issue regarding the traffic signal lights opposite V.V Puram Police Station. For more than three months now, these lights have been operating intermittently, functioning for about a week before remaining non-functional for approximately ten days thereafter. This inconsistency has posed significant challenges for both motorists…

Sir,  Nrupathunga Road, the main arterial road linking Kuvempunagar to Vivekanandanagar, was dug up to lay sewage lines. However, the road has not been re-laid, causing immense discomfort to citizens. This road is used daily by thousands of commuters, including school children and the sick in ambulances. The potholes and craters are deep and wide….

Sir, Being a resident of Mysuru and an amateur photographer, this is my appeal to our new Mysuru-Kodagu MP, Yaduveer Wadiyar. Mysuru lacks a proper Art Gallery with the necessary facilities to display photographic art, paintings and hold Art Exhibitions and seminars. Even our very own world-renowned photographer, the late T.S. Satyan, had to exhibit…

Sir, This refers to the photo caption titled ‘Fresh Water & Dirty Plastic’ in Star of Mysore dated July 18. The issue of plastic pollution in the River Cauvery is neither new nor unknown. As the river flows downstream from the KRS Dam, it becomes increasingly polluted due to the actions of tourists and various…

Sir, I appreciate the initiative taken by our MP Yaduveer Wadiyar and others in cleaning Kukkarahalli Lake and its surroundings recently. However, have we not seen similar efforts in the past?

The limited space at the existing Bus Stand, which serves as a hub for buses bound for many districts across Karnataka, is a primary issue. Overcrowding of buses and passengers has made…

Sir, For over a month, garbage has been accumulating in front of an abandoned house on Devaparthiva Road (BJP Office Road), with no action taken by Mysuru City Corporation (MCC). The waste is piled up in front of two long-abandoned and dilapidated houses, which have become havens for rats, and snakes, and a breeding ground…

Sir, With reference to the letter ‘Toll-free travel, thanks to many entry and exit points’ published in Star of Mysore on July 12, I have raised similar concerns in my previous letters in July 2023 (‘Direct entry to Expressway from service roads not safe’) and August 2023 (‘Concern over the safety of commuters on expressway’)….

Sir, Cheluvamba Park, one of the oldest parks in Yadavagiri, located opposite the Mysore Akashvani, often makes news for its poor maintenance. The gym equipment installed at the park has been damaged for two years, but nobody seems to be bothered to repair it. With the term of the MCC Corporators having ended a few…

Sir, Firstly, I want to congratulate Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar on winning the Lok Sabha election in 2024. The work done by our previous MP, Prathap Simha, for the Railways, Airport and Mysuru-Bengaluru Highway is commendable. I hope Yaduveer  will continue other pending development projects. Some of the requests for our new MP include making…
