Not Princess Road but KRS Road will be renamed
Mysuru: With the controversy over renaming ‘Princess Road’ in the city escalating, both BJP and JD(S) have voiced their opposition.
However, Congress MLA K. Harishgowda, who proposed the renaming, clarified his stance, stating that he did not demand the renaming of Princess Road but only sought to name the stretch from Sri Lakshmi Venkataramanaswamy Temple to Royal Inn junction as ‘Siddaramaiah Arogya Marga.’
Speaking to reporters at Congress Bhavan this morning, he explained that he had submitted a proposal to Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) on Nov. 12, 2023, to rename KRS Road as ‘Siddaramaiah Arogya Marga.’
“Objections were raised by Mysuru-Kodagu MP Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar regarding the renaming. I have not asked for the renaming of Princess Road but only the section from Sri Lakshmi Venkataramanaswamy Temple to Royal Inn after CM Siddaramaiah for his contributions to the health sector,” he said.
