Kukkarahalli Lake or common water hyacinth lake?!

December 15, 2021

Sir, The recent spell of intermittent rains has no doubt increased the water level in Kukkarahalli Lake, but simultaneously contributed to the unbridled growth of common water hyacinth in the lake which has engulfed a large portion of the water surface (see pic). Ironically, this lake used to be a source of water supply to…

City streets crying for attention

December 13, 2021

Sir, When we speak so much about Swachh Mysuru, we should also observe the hygiene in the roads and footpaths, particularly in the crowded areas like Sayyaji Rao Road, city markets etc. I was sorry to see the street vendors spitting near a popular medical store in that narrow street on Sayyaji Rao Road. That…

Twin garbage rivers, an eyesore !

December 9, 2021

Sir, These twin rivers of garbage are by the left side of the Ring Road, 500 mts away from the junction of Ring Road and Vijayanagar 4th stage entrance when proceeding towards Bogadi Ring Road junction. This eyesore should not be part of our Mysuru city. I wonder how the authorities concerned are so blind…

Woes at Paschimavahini

December 7, 2021

Sir, I wish to highlight various problems people face at Paschimavahini (near Srirangapatna) while on visit to immerse ashes of dead relatives there.  Vehicle parking is a big issue here.  Then a person follows you demanding ‘immersion charge’ of Rs.100 per pot, which seems a new levy. When  asked, we are told that it is…

Encroachment of footpath near Vedanta Hemmige Circle

December 6, 2021

Sir, The efforts of authorities concerned in stopping encroachment of footpaths by roadside vendors is laudable. However, the menace at Vedanta Hemmige Circle on New Kantharaj Urs Road is becoming unbearable leading to accidents. Almost 70 percent of the road is occupied by vehicles who stop to eat at roadside food stalls on the footpath….
