Mangalore, April 9: Mangalore City Corporation has planned to provide Sintex water tanks to poor families for water storage.
Following the budget presentation, Corporator Jayanthi B Shetty had placed a suggestion before the Mayor to provide water tanks to BPL families as they cannot benefit from tanker services much if they do not possess adequate water storage facilities.
Speaking to Coastaldigest.com, Mayor Gulzar Banu said that a meeting was convened wherein she directed all corporators to identify the deserving families in their respective wards.
“Although the suggestion was for BPL card holders only, I have asked the corporators to conduct a survey and give a list of deserving poor families in their respective wards, even if they belong to the APL category”, Ms. Banu said.
