Mysuru: If the proposed vehicle ban on Chamundi Hill is implemented, questions arise about the multi-level parking lot built atop the Hill at a cost of Rs. 80 crore to accommodate 600 cars and 1,000 two-wheelers.
Tax-payers and devotees argue that this is a sheer waste of public money. They believe that such a ban should have been enforced before constructing this parking facility, as a bit of foresight from officers and political leaders could have resolved this issue without unnecessary expenditure. The parking lot might now remain largely underutilised, raising concerns about accountability and planning.
