Kozhikode KSRTC terminal: Congress and BJP up the ante over alleged mismanagement
The Hindu
A recent report of the Indian Institute of Technology Madras that said the multi-storey twin complex was unfit and unsafe for operations and required immediate renovation has sparked off a dispute
The plight of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) terminal complex constructed at the cost of ₹74.63 crore on the Mavoor Road in Kozhikode city in Kerala has acquired a political dimension with the Congress-led UDF taking on the ruling CPI(M)-led LDF over its alleged mismanagement.
What sparked off a dispute is a recent report of the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT-M) that said the multi-storey twin complex was unfit and unsafe for operations and required immediate renovation. Other political parties, including the BJP, have also stepped up their agitations demanding a judicial investigation into the construction of the terminal, which was inaugurated with much fanfare by former Chief Minister Oommen Chandy in June 2015.
