On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate a highway that connects Bengaluru, a centre for Technology and startups, with Mysuru, a historic city, before the Karnataka assembly elections. Nitin Gadkari, the Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, thinks it will increase accessibility to places like Srirangapatna, Coorg, Ooty, and Kerala, thereby enhancing those places' tourism potential. PM Modi has described it as a significant connectivity project that will support Karnataka's growth trajectory. The three-hour commute between the state's cultural hub, Mysuru, and Bengaluru, the capital of Karnataka, is reduced to 75-90 minutes thanks to the 118 km Bengaluru-Mysuru highway on NH-275.
