Mysuru: Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari arrived in Mysuru on Wednesday.
Mysuru-Kodagu MP Prathap Simha submitted a memorandum urging the minister to upgrade the Mysuru-Nanjangud National Highway (NH 212) from the existing four-lane highway into a six-lane one. This widening of the highway would provide easy passage to Mandakalli airport in Mysuru and would be a boost to Kadakola and Thandavapura Industrial area, said Simha.
Apart from the extension of NH 212, Simha also submitted a memorandum to the Union minister, seeking approval for a series of road development works to be undertaken in Mysuru city and rural areas, to which Gadkari responded positively.
