Mysuru considers renaming a road after Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, sparking debate amid opposition.

A stretch of KRS Road in Mysuru, Karnataka, may be renamed 'Siddaramaiah Arogya Marga' after the state's Chief Minister, despite opposition from the BJP. The BJP argues that roads should only be named after individuals posthumously, but the Congress party, led by MLA Harish Gowda, supports the change, noting the lack of official records naming the road 'Princess Road'. The Mysuru City Corporation has issued a notification inviting public objections, sparking debate among locals who want to preserve the road's historical name.
