Mysuru: Preparations for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit began 20 days in advance with the upgradation of infrastructure, beautification, greening and of course, the cleaning of the perennially-clogged drains and rectifying pothole-ridden roads all along the PM’s route.
But the tense part was his visit per se as elaborate arrangements and backup plans had to be made to ensure that there is no lapse. Though the PM’s Mysuru visit was only for about 18 hours from his arrival in an IAF helicopter at the Oval Grounds to his departure at about 10.30 am from the Mysore Airport, the Mysuru District Administration and the Police were on their toes to make it an incident-free visit.
