Sir, The Clean City tag for Mysuru is deserved for many reasons but not for few reasons. Some aspects lets down the criteria at many places. The entire stretch of Lansdowne building (backside) wall on 1st Cross, Jaganmohan Palace Road, is spilled with nauseous urine slush. Public are using this wall exclusively for urinating purpose….
Sir, The raging controversy over layouts coming under Kurubarahalli Survey No. 4 and Alanahalli Survey No. 41 clearly shows that our elected representatives including the MP, MLAs, MLCs and Corporators have not exerted pressure on the State Government to resolve the long-pending issue that has been created by some government officials who lacked knowledge about…
Sir, I would like to draw the attention of the authorities concerned towards the difficulties faced by the aged passengers who are alighting from the long distance buses at Mysuru. In the absence of any parking area adjacent to the alighting gate, aged passengers have to walk a long distance through busy traffic road to…
Sir, This has reference to ‘Abracadabra’ by KBG in SOM dated Feb. 13, 2017. I am not a cartoonist nor am I good at drawing. Hence I thought I would write about a Common Man of India-2017, in words which may interest a few. The Common Man of 2017 has a disappointed face and at…
Sir, Thank you for publishing the first editorial, heralding the birth of Star of Mysore on 16.2.1978, 39 years back, in the Special 40th Anniversary Issue dated 16.2.2017.

Party…
Sir, Residents of Ramakrishna-nagar H-Bock have been facing the problem of stray dogs chasing children, cyclists, two-wheelers, vendors,cattle etc., besides making loud noise during night and thus depriving us the much-needed sleep. They are also multiplying in short time, thanks to inefficient animal birth control programme. Several puppies are born and are roaming the streets…
Sir, Kukkarahalli Kere is a walker’s paradise. And I speak for all morning and evening joggers when I say that hundreds of people enjoy the quietness and silence it provides. As do the various flora and fauna that reside in the Lake. Transforming the lake into a tourist destination with butterfly parks and entry arches…
Sir, For the last 10 days, interesting observations, exaggerated statistics and impending threats to biodiversity of Kukkarahalli Lake are being discussed in different forums by different group of activists. All are ill-conceived. Please let the work continue. On behalf of the University of Mysore, I assure the people of Mysuru that more biodiversity and natural…
Sir, This is in response to the editorial note regarding Kukkarahalli Lake issue (SOM dated Feb.28). I have covered almost all the points regarding why developmental activities are not required in Kukkarahalli Lake. Since you feel I am making sentimental fools, this is my reply.
