Mysore/Mysuru: In what is perhaps for the first time, District Minister S.T. Somashekar on Sunday gave a detailed account of Dasara-2020 expenses, though held in a simple manner this year, within a week of Vijayadashami marking the culmination of the ten-day Dasara festival that was celebrated between Oct.17 and Oct. 26.
The Government, which had kept the festival a low-key due to the outbreak of the deadly COVID-19 contagion, had sanctioned Rs.10 crore for the 410th Nada Habba, while MUDA had promised to give Rs.5 crore, if necessary.
