Minister for Housing V. Somanna, who is also the Minister in charge of Chamarajanagar district, on Tuesday proposed to invite Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai to participate in the Silver Jubilee of the district’s creation. Chamarajanagar district, which was carved out of the undivided Mysuru district on August 15, 1997, completes 25 years during the coming Independence Day and the district administration is planning to celebrate the Silver Jubilee of the district either on August 25 or 26 in a grand manner.
Speaking to reporters at Nagamale Bhavan in Malai Mahadeshwara Hills, Mr. Somanna said the district administration officials will be directed to hold preliminary meetings to chalk out the programmes to mark the district’s silver jubilee. In order to make the event meaningful and memorable, a variety of programmes should be organised, he said.
Recently, Mr. Somanna said the silver jubilee of the district’s creation will be celebrated alongwith Independence Day, but on Thursday said the programme will be held later this month on either August 25 or 26 or any other convenient date to facilitate the participation of the Chief Minister.
