PWD to assess strength of foundation of track at Maharaja’s College ground
Preparatory works ahead of the relaying of the synthetic track at the Maharaja’s College ground here have gathered pace after its initial delays.
The Public Works Department (PWD), entrusted with the execution of the project, will carry out an assessment of the strength of the track foundation. The college management had earlier formed a monitoring committee consisting of sportspersons, former students, and elected members to execute the relaying of the synthetic track.
The government had issued administrative sanction for the ₹6.9-crore renovation work. The Directorate of Collegiate Education had included the project among its other proposals in the annual plan for 2021-22.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
