This is the question posed by Swachha Mysuru Member Sumanth Channagiri to the MCC. According to Sumanth, there is a public toilet built by MCC close to BGS Apollo Hospital on Adichunchanagiri Road. The toilet remains closed most of the time because it has a leaking water sump. The branches of a tree are jutting outside this toilet.
Since the toilet was not functioning people were found urinating on the walls adjoining the hospital. In spite of lodging a formal complaint with the Corporation and bringing it to the notice of the area Corporator, nothing happened. Finally, Sumanth and volunteers of Swachha Mysuru Benaka Patel, A.P. Anurag, Ravi Keerthi and Revathi created a wall art (see pic above) with the assistance of Anbug Creative Studio’s Avinash Kalra, Inchara Somesh and Lohit Devajana. Sumanth said that with this initiative, people are now ashamed to urinate on the clean, beautiful wall.
