Sir, I would like to thank Star of Mysore because after winning Rs. 1000 in Lucky Grahak Yojane it was through SOM that I came to know about an old lady who lost her household belongings in a cylinder blast. Giving someone Rs. 1000 that I got in Lucky Grahak Yojane was not a big…
Sir, Our one-time beautiful Bogadi village road is now turning notoriously infamous into a banner road. There is not a day on which we can see the stretch without some banner or the other. I am surprised how the authorities give permission to put up huge cut-outs of local residents for their birthdays with at…
Sir, This has reference to a report on the above matter in SOM dated 11.2.2017. I have been following up this matter with the Traffic Police in Mysuru for the last five years. Initially, I used to raise this matter in monthly meetings but stopped attending the meetings as it proved futile. I have not…
Sir, The news item “Two bike riders killed as they hit road barricades” (SOM dated Feb.10) is really sad and shocking. Two precious lives were lost for no fault of theirs and their family members have to undergo trauma life-long. Barricades are installed with a good intention to reduce the speed — provided barricades are…
Sir, The seating arrangement in Chair Car of Chamundi Express train do not conform with that mentioned in the ticket.

Use of defective or…
Sir, Many vehicle-users comment on the Traffic Police whenever there is an inconvenience caused to them due to any reason related to traffic movement. But if one looks at the above picture, it clearly shows that they themselves are not following the rules and causing inconvenience to others. Barricades are placed on Sayyaji Rao Road…
Sir, I refer to the interesting article by V.N. Prasad in SOM dated 4.1.2017. The suggestion made by the author is very much necessary lest the public money goes to drain in the absence of quality control. It seems Prasad has not taken into consideration two more critical issues associated with widening and improving the…
Sir, This has reference to the news item ‘New Railway Over and Under Bridges sanctioned for city’ (SOM dated Feb.6). While welcoming such Road Under Bridges (RUBs) and Road Over Bridges (ROBs) that help in easy movement of vehicles at Railway crosses, authorities have to also plan for pedestrian walkways in RUBs and ROBs according…
Sir, Just a few days back I was travelling to Bengaluru by Rajya Rani Express which departs from Mysuru at 2.30 pm. The journey was very awesome up to Naganahalli. The train reached Naganahalli so fast that I didn’t feel like I travelled. It was there almost at 4.30 pm. But trouble started only after…
