Sir,
In yesterday’s Star of Mysore, a news item titled ‘Two buildings to be originally renovated’ with a suggestion that on similar lines, Devaraja Market and Lansdowne building can also be renovated was published.
However, it must be remembered that Devaraja Market and Lansdowne building are constructed architecturally in a totally different manner using different materials.
Therefore, they are beyond renovation and they can only be demolished and reconstructed keeping the original architectural design and using modern construction materials like steel and cement.
