மெயின்ஸ்
GS-I Art and Culture: State festivals such as Mysuru Dasara preserve living heritage and regional identity. Government patronage, platforms like Yuva Dasara and the Amba Vilas Palace stage promote performing arts and local artists while also driving cultural tourism. The way forward is balancing commercialisation and crowd management with authenticity, and widening opportunities for folk and emerging artists.
