For Mysore, it was a prolonged fight for freedom
The Hindu
In the princely state of Mysore, the agitation continued beyond August 15, 1947
Two salient features stand out in the history of the freedom struggle in Mysuru (then Mysore), comprising the regions from the erstwhile princely state. One is the region’s delayed entry into the mainstream freedom struggle, attributed to the “cushioning” provided by the benevolent rule of the later Wadiyars to help absorb much of the shock of the British despotism. Secondly, though the freedom struggle officially came to an end with India achieving Independence on August 15, 1947, the movement continued for a few more months.More Related News

The clarification follows controversy over the “100-metre” criterion used to define hills across states.
