Stakeholders seek extension of illumination by 10 days
The Hindu
They say tourists will come even after the conclusion of Dasara festivities
The Federation of Organisations and Associations of Mysuru has urged the State government to extend the Dasara illumination by another 10 days instead of ending it after Vijayadashami festival on October 15 as a tourism promotion initiative since tourists will continue to pour into the city even after the conclusion of the festivities.
The Chamundeshwari Electricity Supply Corporation had announced that it would end the illumination after the Dasara finale on Friday. This year, the illumination has been done on a total stretch of 102-km, covering most parts of the city, besides special illumination at 40 junctions.
Compared to last year, the illumination is expansive this year since no other events barring the cultural events at the palace are being organised. The illumination has been a big draw and the roads are witnessing heavy traffic in the evenings with a large number of people turning up daily.
