Declaring that this year’s Mysuru Dasara will be celebrated on a grand scale, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday said the government was planning to hold an air show on the occasion of the festival. He said he will discuss this with the Union Defence Minister.
Briefing mediapersons after chairing a meeting of a high-power committee on Dasara-2023, the Chief Minister said officials had been directed to ensure necessary infrastructure is provided to tourists who come to witness the Nadahabba celebrations.
He said this year’s celebrations may see a large participation of women due to the Shakti scheme that offers free bus travel to them. Adequate arrangements should be made and officials should ensure that visitors do not face any inconvenience, he said.
