Mysore/Mysuru: This year, visitors to KRS Dam will miss the usual spectacular and colourful light display during the water release from the crest gates. The absence of lights is due to the removal and disconnection of bulbs as part of the installation of new crest gates.
CNNL Executive Engineer Jayanth informed Star of Mysore this morning that 153 crest gates at various levels have been replaced due to corrosion and damage. “During this process, the special light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs were removed, and their connections were disconnected. We will try to set up some temporary lights this year, and from next year, we will have a full-fledged light display,” he said.
