Grand illumination and the crowds returning after the Dasara drone show triggered massive traffic snarls across Mysuru on Saturday night, bringing vehicular movement to a crawl in several key areas and keeping police on their toes till around midnight.

The worst congestion was reported in the city centre, particularly around the Mysuru Palace and Dasara Exhibition grounds, where the spectacular illumination drew large crowds. Roads leading to and around the Palace witnessed a steady influx of vehicles as people arrived to view the illuminated Palace, streets and heritage structures, and later headed home after the drone show organised at the Torchlight Parade Grounds.
