Mysuru: The controversial Gun House Circle, which was looking ugly with zinc sheets all around it and was an eyesore for tourists, has now been covered with canvas and painted yellow and red with the co-operation of JSS Mahavidyapeetha.
Work had begun to install a statue of Dr. Sri Shivarathri Rajendra Swamiji at the Circle by JSS Mahavidyapeetha when a few people moved the Court seeking a statue of late Srikanta Datta Narasimharaja Wadiyar at the Circle and also obtained a stay order from the Court. The zinc sheets covering the Circle was a disturbing sight for tourists visiting the Palace.
