When was the latest Masterplan for Mysore and Nanjangud LPA released? Is the information in MUDA's website correct?

Parking is been one of the major issue to be taken into consideration when we think about our growth of the city. Every area/Zone should have a parking buildings/ parking lands rather than allowing to park along the roads and complaining that road width is not enough. We should prohibit parking along the roads especially in major traffic zones.
