Mysore/Mysuru: Even as the State Government is mulling over the renovation works of heritage Lalitha Mahal Palace Hotel, the Arch Gate of the Palace on Mysuru-T. Narasipur Road continues to be in a state of utter neglect due to lack of maintenance, with the latest being the damage to a portion of its compound wall.
The two to three-feet tall compound wall with iron grill on the right side (from the road leading towards Lalitha Mahal Palace Hotel) is suspected to have been damaged deliberately by miscreants with the ulterior motive of stealing the grills. Four box type pillars have been built with iron grills in between to form the Arch Gate.
