Sir, We appreciate the efforts of the District Administration, Tourism Department and other sponsors in holding the carnival on D. Devaraja Urs Road as part of Mysuru Winter Festival-2017 on Dec.30.

By evening, a huge crowd had gathered on the street and it was very difficult to either enter or exit Urs Road from all lanes available for that Road by walk.
