Mysuru: There are two most important heritage landmarks in the heart of the city — Lansdowne Building and Devaraja Market — and that are lying in a dilapidated condition and neither the District Administration nor the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) has taken any concrete steps so far to restore or rebuild the structures. However, yesterday there was some hope for the tenants of these two complexes when Deputy Commissioner Abhiram G. Sankar inspected both the places.
According to the DC, the decision of taking up the works depends on the decision of the Government. However, there are already two conflicting reports — one report of the Heritage Committee suggesting retaining both the heritage structures and repairing them, while the other of the Task Force stating that they have to be demolished and rebuilt.
