A 45-minute Dasara Air Show has been planned in Mysuru on October 23.

On October 10, Deputy Commissioner K.V. Rajendra, who is the Dasara Special Officer, announced that the air show will be held at the Torchlight Parade Ground in Bannimantap in Mysuru at 4 p.m. A rehearsal will be held on October 22 at the same time (4 p.m. onwards).

Police Commissioner B. Ramesh said, “No passes are required for watching either the rehearsal of the show on October 22, or the actual show on October 23. On the day of the air show (October 23), the full dress rehearsal of the torchlight parade will be held between 7.30 pm and 9.30 pm. Those who have come to watch the air show can also watch the torchlight parade rehearsal since there are no separate passes for the shows.”

An Indian Air Force team from Coimbatore will be performing the Dasara air show, he told reporters.

Mr Rajendra said heli rides and paragliding are also being planned. Confirmation on these two experiences is expected in a day or two.
