Cheyyadane, Jul. 13: Kodagu district has a total of 5 taluks and basic amenities and facilities are available to the common people.
A passport is a very necessary document for traveling abroad. But without a passport service center in Kodagu, people here have to go to distant towns to get passport facilities.
There is a situation where people from five taluks of the district have to wander to the distant capitals of Bangalore, Mysore or Mangalore to get a passport.
The people of Kodagu have to wait for about a couple of months to get a passport. It is ironic that the people of the district have to rely on different centers for everything like police verification, passport application.
Although Kodagu district is famous for the country's largest number of soldiers and sports, the lack of a passport service center is a sign that the government is neglecting Kodagu.
There was a passport service center at the Madikeri post office in Kodagu several years ago. The public is of the opinion that it would have been very useful for the people of Kodagu if it was restored.
It has been a long-standing dream of the people of Kodagu that the two MLAs and MPs of Kodagu should immediately pay attention and start at least 2 Passport Seva Kendras in Kodagu. - Ashraf
A Passport Seva Kendra is essential in Kodagu. In 2007, there was a service center at the Madikeri Post Office. It is sad that it was closed. As soon as possible, the MLAs and MPs should start a Passport Seva Kendra for Madikeri and Virajpet area.
- Mohammad Rafi, Virajpet Municipality Member.
The residents of Kodagu have to spend a lot of money and time to travel to Bangalore or Mangalore for passport services. Starting a local Passport Seva Kendra will eliminate this burden. It will save time and money. This important infrastructure will simplify the passport application process for the citizens of Kodagu. This will increase convenience and efficiency. Therefore, it is essential to establish a Passport Seva Kendra in Kodagu.
