Mysuru, Sept 5: Kannada writer and Hindutva advocate S L Bhyrappa has demanded direct flight from Mysuru to Mangaluru and Hubballi instead of flight service between Mysuru and Bengaluru.

Speaking at the launch of 'You Cannot Miss This Flight', essays on Emerging India, organised by Mysuru Literary Forum Charitable Trust Book Clubs and Harper Collins Publishers at a private hotel, here he said that will not prefer to take a flight from Mysuru to Bengaluru as the travelling time from airports to the cities are more

"People, who developed flights between Mysuru and Bengaluru are fools. Mysuru Airport is far from the city and nearer to Nanjangud. Similarly, Bengaluru Airport is in Devanahalli and no one will take flight from Mysuru to Bengaluru as the travelling time from airports to cities is more," he said.

Suggesting that flights must be introduced between Mysuru and Mangaluru or Hubballi, Bhyrappa said, road connectivity between Mysuru and Mangaluru is not good.

"The officials should guide the politicians in policy matters but, in India, the officials are not working properly. Majority of the politicians are not intelligent and need guidance. Though Prime Minister Narendra Modi is better compared to others, the officials failed to implement various programmes introduced by the PM," Bhyrappa said.
