Sir,
This has reference to the article on ropeway by Bhamy V. Shenoy in Star of Mysore dated Mar. 9.
The article clearly, elaborately, pointwise, describes the needlessness of a costly project called the ropeway.
The format of the article, basic question and answer type, makes it crystal clear to anyone, why it is foolish to install an ugly contraption amidst beautiful green surroundings. It is basic to undertake a need survey in order to formulate a problem statement, many solutions to which will be synthesised to design a viable and cost-effective working system to solve any major issue affecting the public.
It appears no such survey has been conducted and the fanciful ropeway is just a ‘costly toy’ conceived by some neta at the cost of taxpayers’ expense. If indeed the netas want to attract tourists with something new in the form of a ropeway, they can construct a small working model to be viewed by those interested in something new, just on the lines of Rail Museum at the same venue which also enhances the attraction to the museum.
Hope better sense will prevail on those who are bent upon vandalising the serene and delicate Hill surroundings.
– Prof. B.S. Shankara (retd.), Mysuru, 10.3.2022

Fail to understand why Mysore people are always conservative and do not want any development by writing such useless opinions.
@Nagaraj
You will to grasp this debate because, you do not exercise your brain or you cannot comprehend the simple fact that Rope way to carry people in carriages up the Hill and down, requires a massive steel structure that needs to be anchored into the geological layers of this Hill, which at the moment cannot handle the road traffic increase resulting in massive land slides after a torrential rail. The geological structure of the Hill is a mix of soft earth and weak stones-as one can see while climbing the steps up the Hill. Much of the trees and greens have to be removed to anchor the massive pylons needed to support the rope and the carriages with people in them.
Not all developments are good. Mysuru is destroyed by massive housing developments-pollution with massively increased vehicles, people owning cars, no pedestrian ways with footpaths disappearing to widen the roads, etc.. So, you think these are are good, as developments.
Conservatism is necessary to preserve the ecosystem, otherwise, people as dimwits as you are will destroy what the nature granted to Mysuru.
People of Mysuru, it was the city where I was born, brought up and worked for a time, have not been conservative enough to preserve the historical and environmental aspects of this city.
I live in a Western country, where we have everything that technology developments can provide, including the excellent health service, transport and education, but yet we are conservative when it comes to destroying the environmental and historical aspects of our city.
It is only people like you, who do not have the ability to comprehend what the nature has provided, post such nonsense.
You do not also seem not to grasp that people have their opinions, different than yours That says more about you.
Correction: You will grasp….
Hello Nagaraj
Instead of posting a single sentence that sounds like an inane observation, why can’t you develop it, and argue your case of how this Rope Way structure will help, and why it is a worthwhile development.
Captain Jack Sparrow will you keep quiet and making personal attacks on me. Who the hell are you to make comments. You yourself admit that you are living in a Western country and the fruits of development. It is because of brainless people like you Mysore has not developed and still is a sleepy city. It is better you keep quiet and do not post any abusive comments
Mr Questo-Who solicited your comments. Just lay off and stop making abusive comments. I am not answerable to you and why should I answer you It is because of bunch of insane people like you Mysore has not developed at all. Allow the Mysore Develop please
Captain Jack Sparrow-No one is interested in free and insane observations. Just lay off and try to use Decent language. You are not only soul on the earth. Maintain Decorum and Decency while writing.
Captain Jack Sparrow -You seems to be brainless fellow and comment that I have not used my brain. Don’t you have the minimum decency while writhing and who solicited your brainless advice from a Brainless person like you enjoying life in a Western country.
Hey Nagaraj
I invited to provide constructive arguments, not one sentence silly observation.
You seem to have no brain cells to do that and your reply shows that you are incapable of proving a detailed opinion of yours.
You need to go back to school and learn.
Hi Questo-Please lay off. You do not have any brain cells and who the hell are you are you to judge me that I am incapable of providing a detailed opinion and why I should you provide you my detailed opinion, You can go back to school and learn. You do not have the required decency. I was within my limits when I posted the comments. Who solicited your free comments. Please go back to school and learn how to make comments
@Nagaraj
The fact that you do not have brain cells is proved by your reply to @Questo, in which you have repeated most of his words, not adding much of your own.
This bizarre behaviour like yours can occur if you have forgotten to take your medication.
It is best for @Questo and others , not to make your condition worse.
@Jack Sparrow-I think you do not have the brain cells developed. I have not forgotten any medication and I do not need any medication. I think you may need medicatiobn before making comments.
It is proved that both of you are brainless and insane people. Learn the decency first without making personal attacks.
Brainless and Senseless Jack hope this will make you quiet.
You are that another guy cannot make my condition worse. You can keep on day dreaming to make my condition worse.
Go back to school and learn the decency of making comment.
I will keep on replying till you stop personal attack senseless and brainless jack.
Brainless Jack -Hope you will stop your personal attacks and senseless comments
Finally Brainless Jack and insane Questo have gone silent. Hope medication has started working on brainless jack and brain cells have started developing, Questo has gone back to School for brain development and art of writing comments. The only aim of you people is to oppose any new development. Because of People like brainless jack and insane Questo Mysore has remained under developed city. Mysore remains underdeveloped city in terms of peers like Mangalore and Hubli in terms of Airport connectivity ,Roads development, Industries. God only should help people like brainless jack and insane Questo
