The Sayyaji Rao Road, which has been developed as ‘Raja Marga’ since years, has remained only a namesake ‘Royal Route’ as the sewage problem on this stretch is a everyday affair. A shopkeeper on this stretch blamed a sweet stall dumping wasted into the drain is clogging the drain resulting in the sewage water overflowing from it. Many visit Raghulal & Co. Pharmacy on Sayyaji Rao Road and it is very difficult to pass this stinking stretch, says a reader who has sent this photo.

In my younder days in Mysuru, I have seen PM Nenru, Rajajai the Governor General and Rajendra Prasad the President accompanied by His Highness Jayachamaraja Wadiyar taking a route through this road to the applause of us, who congregated along the road.
When sewage water can flow into the holy river Ganga, this is no wonder!
