Congress Spokesperson says there is no proof
Mysuru: A day after former Mayor Sandesh Swamy produced a map as evidence to assert that KRS Road was indeed named as ‘Princess Road’, KPCC Spokesperson M. Lakshmana said that there is no mention of Princess Road in Mysuru City Corporation records.
Addressing a press meet at Congress Bhavan here this morning, he said, “It was renamed KRS Road in 1931. This is recorded in Deputy Commissioner’s Office. We will name it after Siddaramaiah, come what may. A proposal will be sent to the Government for implementation if the records are available.”
‘Duplicate’ titular head
Lakshmana made personal remarks at Mysuru-Kodagu MP Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar (who had opposed the renaming of the road) and called Yaduveer as a ‘duplicate’ titular head of the erstwhile Mysore royal family.
