Mysuru: Opposing the proposed construction of an amusement park by the State Government at Krishna Raja Sagar (KRS), members of Mysuru Kannada Vedike staged a protest near the old Deputy Commissioner’s Office in city yesterday.
Pointing out that KRS Dam was not built for the Deputy Chief Minister to make merry there, the protestors said that the Dam was built for the farmers to take up agricultural activities and to provide drinking water to the people of Mysuru and Bengaluru. “It is not right on the part of the Minister to speak as per his will by sitting in a corner of Vidhana Soudha without having a little knowledge about the history of Cauvery River and Mysuru,” they added.
