Hunsur: “Being an administrative centre for six taluks, Hunsur Sub-division should be separated from Mysuru District, be given a district status and be named after former CM late D. Devaraj Urs,” asserted former Minister A.H. Vishwanath.
Addressing a press meet at the Press Club here on Friday, Vishwanath observed that Mysuru District is facing problems handling two sub-divisions, 13 taluks and Mysuru City Corporation which necessitates carving Hunsur out as a separate district. He contended that the main rivers Cauvery, Lakshmanatheertha and Kabini along with Nagarahole National Park are parts of Hunsur which also boasts of good commercial and cultural activities not to exclude the political importance.
