It has been 25 years since the district of Chamarajanagar was carved out of the undivided Mysuru district on August 15, 1997, during the tenure of former Chief Minister J.H. Patel, marking 50 years of Indian Independence Day. The Chamarajanagar district administration has decided to celebrate the silver jubilee of the district’s formation with a lot of fanfare by drawing up a series of programmes on August 14 and 15.
Making an announcement in the regard on Tuesday, Minister for Housing V. Somanna, who is also the Minister in charge of Chamarajanagar district, said 25 years of the district’s formation will be celebrated along with the 75 years of Indian Independence on August 14 and 15.
