Mysuru: History tells us that Alexander the Great was asked to untie the legendary ‘Gordian Knot.’ When he failed, he simply pulled out his sword and cut the knot. A similar incident was witnessed  in city this morning when the Chief Minister and the KPCC President along with a host of Congress leaders failed to untie the ribbon to formally inaugurate the new Congress office near City Railway  Station here. When they failed, KPCC President Dr. G.

Mahadevappa, Ministers U.T.Khader, Tanveer Sait, MP R. Dhruvanarayan, MLAs Vasu, M.K. Somashekar, Kalale Keshavamurthy and others.
