Madikeri: A special meeting of Madikeri City Municipal Committee was called yesterday to discuss the construction of “Madikeri Square” in the vacant place at the heart of Madikeri Town where the private bus stand once stood. While the ruling Congress fully supported the “Madikeri Square” that will provide an open space for tourists to relax and unwind, BJP members opposed the move.
The meeting was called under the chairmanship of City Municipal Council (CMC) President Kaveramma Somanna and the “Madikeri Square” issue was proposed by CMC Commissioner Ramesh who told the meeting that a compound wall would be constructed around the old private bus stand area and the place will be converted into a tourist attraction.
