Madikeri, Aug. 16: The Dashamantapa Committee has requested the MLAs to raise a proposal in the House to draw the government's attention to the legal hurdles in the use of loudspeakers during the Dashamantapa procession, the main attraction of the historic Madikeri Dasara.
A meeting was held at the city's Sudarshan Guest House in the presence of Madikeri MLA Dr. Mantar Gowda to discuss the Dashamantapa procession. For the past few years, the Pollution Control Board and the Police Department have been restricting the use of DJs during the procession, and the committee has had to face legal action. Against this backdrop, the Dashamantapa leaders appealed to the MLAs to take steps to exempt the use of loudspeakers for this program, which has been going on for many years, from the government level.
MLA Mantar said that legally, the use of loudspeakers has to be stopped within 10 hours. This is a judicial matter and we need to think about whether there are opportunities for legal action. Also, we will do our best to attract the attention of the government, he said.
It was decided that a delegation would go to Bengaluru and start working to attract the attention of the government.
The meeting was attended by Dasara Committee Working President B.K. Arun Kumar, General Secretary Arun Shetty, Dashamantapa Committee President B.M. Harish, representatives of 10 Mantapa Committee and 4 Karaga Committee.
