Sir,
It seems, nowadays it has become a habit for people to change the names of heritage roads and circles in Mysuru as per their whims and fancies.
Recently when I was walking through I saw the heritage clock tower of Mysuru, that is the Silver Jubilee Clock Tower (Big Clock Tower) Circle’s name has been changed to Shree Mahaveera Circle (see the plaque).
When the local MLA and a few others are hell bent on renaming a road after CM Siddaramaiah, a group of another set of people has silently changed the name of the Big Clock Tower Circle as Shree Mahaveera Circle.
I don’t know how the Mysuru City Corporation authorities have given permission to change the name of a heritage circle when they are taking so many years to complete the renovation of the collapsed/ dilapidated portions of the heritage structure?

Note: Effete administration and absence of fear of law among the people is the reason for this kind of incidents in our city. MCC should not compromise and should ACT by removing this kind of unauthorised name boards. —Ed
