Mysuru Rising

Mysuru is at the cusp of change. And the city already knows what it wants to be.

Not just a city of heritage, but a city with a heritage of care and inclusion.

Through the Imaginariums, something truly heartening emerged. Residents did not just show up to talk about what was wrong. They came with ideas. Students, caregivers, elders, architects, and disability rights groups sat together and drew a different city. One where crossing a road does not require courage. One where safety and accessibility are not special provisions but the starting point. A Mysuru that moves with care, and works for everyone who calls it home.

What people Imagined

– Mysuru Resident

I Imagine my Ajji walking to the temple and back without me worrying the whole time.

– Mysuru Resident

A road that excludes the most vulnerable is not finished.

– Mysuru Resident

I Imagine Swimming in the Kukkrahalli Lake someday.

IMAGINED LOUD. ACTING LOUDER.

The Samavesha Vision

For months, volunteers walked this junction at rush hour. They counted near misses. They listened to caregivers, students, elders, and disability rights groups. Then they sat with architects and drew something better. The Samavesha plan is not a proposal waiting for permission. It is a city speaking for itself.

The Zebra Crossing

At a junction beside a national institute for persons with disabilities, crossing the road felt unsafe for the very people it was meant to serve. Residents, architects, and institutions sat together to redesign it. The zebra crossing was not just paint on a road. It was a demand. And Mysuru was listening.
