Mangaluru, Aug 31: Citizens in Mangaluru can soon send their complaints to Mangaluru City Corporation through WhatsApp. Mayor Kavita Sanil has promised to introduce a dedicated WhatsApp number to receive complaints from the public.

The decision was taken following a particular suggestion from one of the callers, during a monthly phone-in programme. “I will look into it, as it may help people to post complaints along with substantiating photographs,” the Mayor said. 

The WhatsApp line will be in addition to the dialling facility (Ph: 2220306 and 155313) or through Janahita-PGR app of the Directorate of Municipal Administration.

If everything goes as expected, the control room, which was handling grievances on the two landline numbers, will be given the responsibility of monitoring complaints filed through WhatsApp.

According to Sanil, the control room personnel will be given a smart phone that has WhatsApp facility. The grievances, which are posted, will be forwarded to the respective departments for action. The mobile number will be announced in the next few days, she said.

Dear Madam, I have purchased 1 BHK flat in Green City, Vamadapadav on October, 2013 and paid full amount to builder T3 Urban Developers LTD. As per agreement possession was in December, 2015 but still building is not ready.

There were 5 buildings in Green City and at a time builder started 3 buildings construction work. I have purchased middle of the building and that building 1st floor slab only completed and since long time work stopped. 

Last year builder agreed to give me flat in 1st building but building’s interior work is still pending and since 1 year work totally stopped.

Presently builder is not picking call or not responding for query. It seems that he is cheating with me. Kindly help me to resolve this issue. I will be grateful to you.

Sir/Madam,

 

Four street lights are not working on Raghavendra Matt Road, Hosabettu, Surathkal since long.

 

The roads are in Shabby condition and hence difficult in the night to Padastrians.

 

Kindly arrange to replace the treet lights on Main road, Raghavendra Matt Road, Hosabettu, near and after the Areca Field.

 the kalbavi road in kottara ashok nagar was provided with ugd pipe line during last year. as usual the centre of road was dug up in march 2018 for this purpose making the road not motorable during the monsoon of 2018.

 the asphalt work is now planned now during nov2018 by mcc. this road is very narrow and not having the foot path or road side drain at all. 

 

both the ugd agency as well as the asphalting agency have put the muck/soil on the sides of the road, making it now impossible to walk when there is traffic. also during monsoons , storm water from the entire stretch for about 500 ft will flow on this road itself which is diverted to my compound/pure water sump due to the faulty work of mcc.

in spite of repeated requests/complaints to the commissioner,corporators, engineers of mcc, publishing of the photos of the same in some news papers,action is yet to be taken.

now at least it is requested to remove all the above dumped muck /soil on either sides of this road which is also preventing the entry of monsoon water th the existing drain near the starting point of sagar court.

Hubli, April 6: A disinfection tunnel was installed at the entrance of the Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) market here on Sunday.

The tunnel, installed with the help of Young India.org, sprays people with a small percentage of Sodium hypochlorite solution through nozzles in order to sanitise them before they enter the market.

"It is helpful for all the farmers, vegetable vendors and other people who are coming and going to the APMC market. This is very useful," said Jagdish Shettar, Minister of Large and Medium Scale Industries, Karnataka.

With regards to any plans of more devices being added in the near future, Shettar added: "Firstly, we will have to see what would be the public's reaction and then, later on, we will decide."

President of Confederation of Indian Industry, Hubli VSV Prasad said that the setting up of this tunnel can help curtail the spread of Coronavirus "by disinfecting the bacteria of the body".

While it was on the trial stage right now, Prasad hopes that the trial is successful and the chamber is set up in more public places. With regards to the cost of the tunnel, he said: "The cost is around Rs 1.5 Lac to Rs 2 Lac and hopefully it will come down once we go for production," he added.

Srinivas Joshi, a representative of Young India.org, speaking to news agency said: "We have added 1.8 percent of Sodium hypochlorite solution in 100 litres of water. It is pumped through high-pressure pumps and sprayed like a mist via nozzles for 3-5 seconds which is very less time to cause any kind of allergy."

"People who are allergic to chemicals should avoid going through this chamber. We are putting signboard very soon," he added.

The number of positive cases of coronavirus in the country continues to surge. As per the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases is 3,577 with 83 deaths.
