Mysuru: President of S.M. Krishna Fans Association Vikrant P. Devegowda has demanded that ‘the Outer-Ring Road (ORR) in the city should be named after former Chief Minister S.M. Krishna, who passed away recently.’
S.M. Krishna was the reason for ORR to become a reality. The Vikrant Tyres (now J.K. Tyre) in the city, was established during his tenure as Industries Minister. He also sanctioned land for Infosys here and took measures for the widening of Mysuru-Bengaluru Highway, to streamline traffic movement.
