Issue of hiring of 20 trucks for waste removal for Pongala festival
A special meeting of the city Corporation council is expected to be held this week, after the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) demanded that a discussion be held on its allegations of corruption in sanitation activities held as part of the Attukal Pongala this year. Though Mayor Arya Rajendran had earlier issued a detailed explanation on the allegations, BJP councillors had last week raised the demand for a special council meet to discuss the issue.More Related News
