MCC removes illegal cut-outs in city

April 17, 2012
Mangalore, April 17: The Mangalore City Corporation carried out a drive to remove all the illegal cut-outs in the heart of the City on Tuesday.

MCC Commissioner Harish Kumar said that the illegal cut-outs were removed from different parts of the city as part of the clean-up drive launched by Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner N S Channappa Gowda.

He said the process on Tuesday was started from Hampankatta signal junction to A B Shetty Circle. “The drive will be extended to other parts of the city too. All cutouts displayed illegally will be removed”, he added.

He said the civic body has carried out such drive in the past also. It had floated a short term tender to produce gas cutters and other equipment needed to remove cutouts erected on steel frames.

Mr Kumar said the illegal hoardings, banners pitched indiscriminately along the road are causing nuisance. They cause inconvenience to the general public. Many of these hoardings and banners are put up in gross violation of civic sense and also the civic law. Many a time, those who put up the banners, board, do not remove the banners after the function or programme gets over. Clearing such banners are a great headache for the Corporation. If we fail to stop putting up of banners and hoardings without proper license, then all our efforts for the beautification of the City will go futile. Some take permission for 10 hoardings. However, they erect more than 10 hoardings, he added.
