Davangere CMC to auction shops

By Our Staff Correspondent

DAVANGERE, JULY 2. The Davangere City Municipality Council (CMC) has decided to ask the shop owners and traders in municipal commercial complexes to vacate all the shops.

The shops would be re-auctioned to help generate more income to the civic body.

The municipality has also decided to get the many petrol bunks running in the municipal area on P.B. Road vacated and re-auction them.

At a meeting recently, many councillors complained that traders, who had secured shops under lease agreement from the municipality, had sold them for a higher price.

The CMC has sent back Ayurvedic doctors to their institutions as it felt that they did not have any crucial role to play in maintaining public health.

The municipality has saved Rs. 20,000 that was spent as doctors' salaries.
