“Approximately 6% of our population hails from India. Strengthening the link between our community and our sister city in South Asia may help us add jobs and attract businesses to Nashua” stated Mayor Donchess.

“This is an incredible opportunity for both Nashua and Mysore. The exchange of ideas and the relationship building will benefit everyone involved. I am sure it will prove to be an invaluable experience for me personally and I welcome the opportunity to better acquaint myself with the wonderful people of Mysore.” commented Director Marchant.
