Places of tourist interest in Mysuru will remain open on the polling day on Wednesday, May 10.
Though eligible voters from Karnataka will not be allowed into tourist destinations in Mandya and Kodagu districts without casting their vote, Deputy Commissioner of Mysuru K.V. Rajendra said that there is no proposal before the district administration to close places of tourist interest in Mysuru for any visitors.
Mysuru is a tourism centre, attracting a large number of tourists from outside Karnataka also. The administration has carried out campaigns on compulsory voting and the local tourists from Karnataka should understand the importance of casting their votes, he said.
