Mysore/Mysuru: The city’s Vani Vilas Market Tenants Association has blamed the negligence of Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) authorities for the sorry state of heritage structures such as Devaraja Market, Vani Vilas Market and Mandi Market which come under the control of the MCC.
In a press release, Association Secretary Shivakumar said that the markets were built by the erstwhile Mysore Maharaja Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar decades ago for the benefit of public. Pointing out that the market buildings are listed as heritage structures and have stood the test of times for nearly a century, he said that these heritage structures, which are unique in architectural character and style, are regarded as a pride of Mysuru.
