Gold Cards to carry seat numbers, no complimentary cards

Minister in-charge of Mysuru district Yathindra Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said Gold Card holders for the Jamboo Savari procession would be provided designated seats with seat numbers, while there would be no provision for distributing complimentary Gold Cards.

A proposal to produce a documentary on the world-famous Mysuru Dasara celebrations through the National Geographic Channel was also discussed at the Dasara Executive Committee meeting held at the Zilla Panchayat auditorium here.

Dr. Yathindra, who presided over the meeting, also launched the Dasara-2026 website — mysoredasara.gov.in — and released the Yuva Sambhrama poster.

He said cultural performances during the Jamboo Savari procession should be systematic and innovative. Whenever more than one cultural troupe was selected for the same art form, the teams should conduct joint rehearsals in advance to ensure coordinated and uniform performances.
