New GVMC council hall decked up for the first meet on March 18

With just a day to go for the first council meet and the election of Mayor and the Deputy Mayor, the new council hall in the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) office is being decked up for the occasion. The authorities are giving final touches to the new hall by fixing mikes to the corporator seats, checking electricity connections, painting works, flooring for the Mayor rooms and a few others here on Friday. The previous council hall was renovated as Command Control Centre for smart city operations. The new council hall has been arranged at the extreme left in the second floor near the Engineering Department. Completely air-conditioned, the hall has 20 large benches (10 in a row) with a seating capacity of 100 people for the 98 corporators, apart from special blocks for the Mayor and the Deputy Mayor in front.
