Minister for Social Welfare H.C. Mahadevappa, who is also the Minister in charge of Mysuru district, on Monday, August 14, said the State government will put in all efforts to make this year’s Dasara festivities more attractive than last year.
Addressing a press conference after holding the first meeting of the Dasara Executive Committee here on Monday, Mr. Mahadevappa said he had sought suggestions from the officials and the elected representatives, who participated in the meeting, to come up with ideas on making the Dasara events more attractive so that the grandeur of the festivities is heightened.
The government, he said, is expecting a higher turnout of people for Dasara festivities this year in view of the free KSRTC bus travel scheme for women – Shakti.
