Mysore/Mysuru: With the Government deciding to conduct Dasara in a simple manner this year on account of the outbreak of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic, the Mysuru City and District Cultural and Professional Artistes’ Association has appealed the Government to hold Dasara cultural events this year too and come to the aid of artistes.
Addressing a press meet here recently, Association General Secretary M. Puttaswamy said that artistes were facing severe crisis due to Corona pandemic, with virtually no cultural events held for over six months. In such a distressing situation, the Government should come to their help by holding Dasara cultural events as before, while giving prominence to local artistes.
