Mysuru MP Pratap Simha requested Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa to rename Mysuru railway station after Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar. MP had send an official request to CM in this regard. Mr. Simha said Krishnaraja Wadiyar was a visionary not just content with merely starting famine relief work when the need for them arose. “Expanding the rail network in the State to meet the emergent situations due to droughts and famines and for monetising the rich material resources were priority items under his administration’’, said Mr. Simha. As per the existing guidelines, the Ministry of Home Affairs is the competent authority to approve change in the name of a railway station based on the recommendation of the State government.
