‘Call Nodal Officers to Fill Potholes Quick’ says MCC Commissioner. Is it for Real or a JOKE?
Mangaluru: We have seen such assurances made by the higher authorities in Mangaluru City Corporation, but in reality, nothing turns out to be REAL and all the assurances are nothing but a JOKE and BOGUS. Anyways, here we have yet another gimmick to fool the public made by the MCC Commissioner in rectifying the issues of the increasing hazardous potholes/craters in the City, which have led to fatalities or serious injuries. And if at all the new assurance made by the Commissioner regarding the pothole issue materializes, then let’s consider it as a HISTORY made in MCC.
It is learnt that Mangaluru City Corporation has designated nodal officers to ensure the potholes/craters are timely filled across its jurisdiction while asking people to contact the officers round the clock for speedy execution of works. A statement from the MCC Commissioner C L Anand said the corporation had initiated a pothole-filling exercise in packages considering the seriousness of the problems being caused by potholes. He said that besides affecting smooth vehicular movement, potholes were also causing accidents.
Officials and contractors concerned were strictly told to complete the pothole-filling exercise in a time-bound manner. Meanwhile, the general public may call or send WhatsApp messages to the nodal officers for the speedy execution of the pothole-filling exercise. The officers and the wards assigned to them are as follows:
