August 24, 2025
|The New Indian Express Kalaburagi
WRITER and Booker Prize winner Banu Mushtaq expressed her gratitude for getting the invitation to inaugurate the Mysuru Dasara festival this year. "It is both the happiest personal moment and a socially important one for me," says Mushtaq.
"My father was employed at Krishna Raja Sagara (KRS), and during Dasara, every year I used to go with the family. I have witnessed the procession of Sri Jayachamarajendra Wadiyar. I never had any thought that one day I would be inaugurating it," Mushtaq recalled her childhood memories.
