Pramoda Devi Wadiyar, a member of the erstwhile royal family of Mysuru, has stated that referring to the land at the T Narsipur road junction as 'MUDA Grounds' is inappropriate. She emphasized that the land in question belongs to the royal family and has historical significance.
Background of the Land Dispute
Since 2011, devotees visiting the area have been provided parking space on the Lalitha Mahal Helipad land, which is owned by the erstwhile royal family. The naming of this land as 'MUDA Grounds' has sparked controversy.
Pramoda Devi's Statement
Pramoda Devi Wadiyar expressed her displeasure over the naming, asserting that it undermines the heritage and ownership rights of the royal family. She called for respecting the original identity of the land.
The issue has drawn attention to the broader debate over land naming and ownership in Mysuru, with historical and legal implications.
