The idea of the Dasara authority never took off although it is always talked about whenever festivities approach.
Every year, ahead of the State Budget, the demand for a Mysuru Dasara Authority, a permanent body for organising the Dasara festivities in Mysuru, comes to the fore. And every time it gets no budget approval, forcing tourism stakeholders to press for the same demand next year.
This time too, the stakeholders, especially the Mysuru Hotel Owners’ Association, have urged Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, who was in Mysuru on Saturday, to announce the authority. In addition, they have sought a Mysuru Tourism Development Authority with Mysuru being the State’s most preferred tourist hub and lakhs of people reliant on the sector for their livelihood. The idea of the Dasara authority never took off although it is always talked about whenever festivities approach.

The tourism industry in the state is on a rebound after a dull patch during the Covid-19 pandemic. The threat of Bird Flu adding to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic woes, has, however, barely dented the sector, which is seeing a revival with people stepping out of their cities, towns and villages with a vengeance following months of restrictions.
Dfficials and experts from tourism and hospitality sectors observe that tourist crowds have increased so much that roads leading to Mysuru, Ooty, Kodagu and other places from Bengaluru often seeing traffic gridlocks as most tourists from within the state prefer taking their own vehicles rather than rely on trains or government or private buses.
Mysore/Mysuru: In the wake of alleged ‘misuse’ of Civic Amenity (CA) sites in the past,
Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) held a consultative meeting with representatives of various organisations to elicit their opinion before starting the allotment process next month.
This interaction was held at Rani Bahadur Auditorium in Manasagangothri this morning in which MUDA Chairman H.V. Rajeev and Commissioner Dr. D.B. Natesh participated.
Dr. Natesh said in the last 50 years, as many as 625 CA sites had been allotted by MUDA of which 512 sites had been used for different purposes other than what they were specifically allotted for. This had defeated the very purpose of allotment of such sites for the benefit of citizens. When MUDA wanted to take back those sites, some of them moved the Courts questioning it. However, the MUDA will not spare them and will take back possession of those sites at any cost in the coming days, he said.
