[Promoting this to a sticky. More interest we see, more the motivation to stay up late and finish Mysore site sooner!] We will shortly be adding Mysore as second city on Praja. A new sub-site will be available at mysore.praja.in. If you are interested in joining Praja-Mysore content team, please register with Mysore as your primary city and let us know via the contact form. Send in a url to your existing blog as well if there is one.
