Mysuru: As the countdown has begun for Nada Habba Mysuru Dasara-2024 to start on Oct.3, the posters of the world renowned festival was released by the dignitaries at Abdul Nazir Sab Hall of Zilla Panchayat (ZP) in the city on Friday.
The posters were released during the Dasara progress review meeting chaired by Kannada and Culture Minister Shivaraj Tangadagi, along with District Minister Dr. H.C. Mahadevappa.
The Ministers instructed the officials to ensure that all the events are organised without any hassles. Most importantly, apart from reliving the Dasara grandeur and sending the message of democracy, unity, equality and the significance of Constitution, the schemes of the Government should also be given adequate publicity during the programmes, they said.
District Minister Dr. H.C. Mahadevappa said, owing to drought situation in the State last year, Dasara celebration was reduced to a simple event, without compromising on the grandeur associated with the annual event. However, with the State witnessing a good spell of monsoon rain this year, it has been decided to celebrate Dasara on a grand scale. All the 19 Sub-committees should make the preparations, he said.
Minister Tangadagi directed to undo the mistakes committed during the previous year Dasara and take corrective measures without giving room for any complaints. We should take precautions to create memorable moments for the tourists and public who come to watch Dasara, he said.
