Sri Jayachamaraja Wadiyar’s Portrait Unveiled At Mysuru Akashvani



"We do not know from where the sound emanates when we stand here. That is how good the circular design of All India Radio (AIR), Mysuru building is," said Pramoda Devi Wadiyar of the erstwhile royal family of Mysore.She was speaking after unveiling the portrait of Sri Jayachamaraja Wadiyar, the last ruler of Mysore State at the Music Studio of All India Radio in Yadavagiri, here yesterday and said every time she visits the Station, it looks new and fresh.Dr. M.V. Gopalaswamy, founder of Akashvani, Mysore, used to run the Station from his house and when he brought it to the notice of Sri Jayachamraja Wadiyar that he was finding it difficult to run from there, it was shifted to this building aptly titled 'Akashvani,' she said.
