Mysuru Fest Logo: Activist Criticises Use Of English In Mysuru Fest Logo | Mysuru News



Mysuru: Kannada activist and Sharana Sahitya Parishat chief Ma Gu Sadanandaiah on Sunday criticised the Mysuru district administration for neglecting Kannada and violating the state government’s norms concerning Kannada language in the Mysuru Fest logo.
Speaking here, he alleged that prominence had been given to the English language, while designing the logo and demanded the district administration to reconsider the logo design, giving more prominence to the Kannada language.
About 70% importance has been given to the English language, while Kannada has been restricted to 30%. The district administration should have instructed the designers regarding the issue, he added.
Sadanandaiah, who has served as deputy director of Kannada and culture, also took exceptions over the name boards installed in various localities. He said that the door numbers, which were mentioned previously, had vanished, giving prominence only to the names of politicians and added that Mysuru City Corporation and Muda must look into the matter.

Since its opening, the Bengaluru-Mysuru National Highway has faced various issues such as accidents, robberies, and credit disputes. Mandya’s elected representatives have been demanding the completion of service road works, which lack basic infrastructure like streetlights, metal crash guards, and convex mirrors. The absence of these safety measures has led to accidents and deaths. Despite demands and instructions from officials, the NHAI has not taken the issue seriously. Drain works are also progressing slowly, and miscreants have taken advantage of incomplete works, causing the disappearance of metal barricades and solar panels in the Mandya region.
