Now, visitors to the Mysuru Palace can see the Simhasana or the golden throne, which is assembled for conducting the Khasa Durbar. The golden throne is kept for public viewing at the Palace untill the end of Dasara.
The throne was assembled on September 18 for ‘Khasa Durbar’ to be performed by Yaduveer Krishnadutta Chamaraja Wadiyar during Navaratri, which will commence on October 17 and concludes on 25. It is kept for public viewing at the Durbar Hall, where private durbar is held.
This time, the throne was assembled a month prior to Dasara, owing to Adhika Ashwija Masa.
According to Palace authorities, the throne will be kept for public viewing until it will be dismantled following Dasara celebration.
The visitors will be charged an additional Rs 50 for seeing the throne.
