Sir, In the recent past a few petrol bunks in and around the outskirts of Mysuru city are not filling fuel for the money we pay. One of my close friends faced this bitter experience when he went to a petrol bunk in the vicinity of his house. He got petrol filled for Rs. 200…
Sir, Fortieth Anniversary Commemorative Issue was good. I also received an autographed copy of KBG’s book “Star of Mysore — Story of a Unique Evening English Newspaper” via his good friend, K. Vijaya Kumar. As I was then reading a historical-cum-semi-religious Kannada book, it took me some time to start reading this book. Going through…
Sir, It is difficult to fathom how deeply and steeply we have been sucked in the quicksand and drowned ourselves in the sea of corruption. Just three individuals — Nirav Modi, Vijay Mallya and Kothari — have plundered the banks to the tune of roughly Rs. 25,000 crore! This trio is just a sample. There…

In the…
Sir, With reference to the above subject, my letter had appeared in these columns on 22.05.2015, almost two and a half years ago where I had written about the excess parking fee collected by the staff of toll and parking fee collection centres at Brindavan Gardens. Recently I had been to Brindavan Gardens once again…
Sir, Crores of rupees have been spent for concretising some of the important roads in the city but the MCC authorities have failed to provide adequate lighting for the same. Nelson Mandela road is one such to cite. The stretch between Highway Circle upto LIC Building is without any street light. So is the case…
Sir, The bus shelter located at the left side of Yadavagiri Post Office in Mysuru city is in a dilapidated condition. Especially in the dusk it is very difficult to utilise this bus shelter. Many factories and offices are functioning in this area. I had already complained in this column a few months back regarding…
Sir, The spread of roads and by-lanes in Mysuru is shocking. Narrow roads and dangerous arteries are on the rise. The number of private vehicles and autos is also wantonly on the rise.
