Mysuru: This year’s annual Jalapathotsava at the scenic Chunchanakatte Falls in Mysuru District will be at a cost of 14 giant trees that are destined to be chopped off to make way for tourists. This move has, however, not gone down well with the villagers who are opposing the tree-felling.
Also called Dhanushkoti waterfall, the splendid water cascade is located at Chunchanakatte village near K.R. Nagar and it is around 55 kms from Mysuru. The falls was in news recently when it flowed in full splendour, thanks to copious rains and thousands of cusecs of Cauvery water that was released from Harangi Dam in Kodagu.
