Mysore: “Mysuru is one of the few cities in the country which is well-planned. More than 100 years ago, the city had the widest roads and all this is because of the legacy left behind by the Wadiyar dynasty. There is no other kingdom in Indian history which is more than 500 years old,” said Isha Foundation Founder Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev.
Delivering a talk after inaugurating the Sri Srikantadatta Narasimharaja Wadiyar (SNW) Foundation at Jaganmohan Palace auditorium in city yesterday he said, “I am also from Mysuru. Mysuru District has the largest number of water bodies on the planet and most of it was constructed by the erstwhile Maharajas. But in the last 35 years many of them have dried up and only the Maharajas cannot be expected to do everything, others should also work alongside.”
