Amidst shrinking footpath space and encroachments, denying rightful space to pedestrians in most parts of the city, the Mysuru City Corporation is carrying out a drive against footpath encroachments from Wednesday.
Though the focus of the drive is near the Mysuru palace where encroachments are said to be rampant, the MCC is expected to continue the drive until this week for clearing encroachment in commercial hubs like Sayyaji Rao Road.
The decision follows the inspection by Mayor Shivakumar and Commissioner Lakshmikanth Reddy on Monday evening.
