Mysuru’s pourakarmikas were described as ambassadors of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan at Pourakarmikas Day, according to The Hindu. Yaduveer Wadiyar also said there was a need to expand the Mysuru City Corporation and develop Greater Mysuru.

Pourakarmikas have been described as “true ambassadors” of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan at an event in Mysuru, The Hindu reported. The remarks were made during Pourakarmikas Day. The available report attributes them to Yaduveer Wadiyar, who also said there was a need to expand the Mysuru City Corporation.

Wadiyar called for the development of Greater Mysuru, although the source material does not explain the proposed boundaries, administrative process or timetable for such an expansion. The report also does not provide details of the event’s other speakers, the number of pourakarmikas involved or any specific measures announced for civic workers. Its available information links recognition of sanitation workers’ contribution to a broader call for changes to Mysuru’s civic development and administration.
