The Telugu Desam Party on Saturday asked GHMC Mayor Mohammad Majid Hussain to conduct the council meeting immediately.
In a representation given to the Mayor, TDP's GHMC floor leader Singireddy Srinivas Reddy said that the GHMC's council meeting should be convened immediately under section 88(d) to discuss in detail the issues relating to dengue and other contagious diseases, laying of roads, sanitation and other issues. He said that the TDP corporators have already submitted a representation on December 15 requesting for council's meeting.
"All the work needs to be initiated with tender process, prior to January 2013, as all the labour will avail holidays to go to their native places on the occasion of the ensuing Sankranti festival. Therefore, the works could be taken up at least in February and the contractors could claim their bills in March," he said.
The TDP leader said that the council meeting should be held immediately in the best interests of the citizens of GHMC and not for the sake of a political crisis. (INN)
