Water supply schemes to be taken up in Bellary

Staff Correspondent

BELLARY: The Bellary Municipal Corporation at its emergency meeting here on Saturday decided to retain the distribution of drinking water supply in the city. The meeting agreed to take up nine works at an estimated cost of Rs. 8.60 lakhs to streamline and improve the distribution of drinking water in the city.

The works included replacement of pipelines in various localities and wards at an estimated cost of Rs. 5.15 lakhs and repairs and maintenance of motors and other equipments at the pumping stations at the Allipur reservoir at an estimated cost of Rs. 3.45 lakhs.

The meeting also decided to construct a new and well-furnished administrative building at the Nalla Cheruvu area in the city. The Mayor, G. Somashekar Reddy, who presided over the meeting, said that after the Bellary council was upgraded to a corporation, the construction of a spacious office building had become inevitable to accommodate all the departments. He said that the existing office was old and congested. The proposed new administrative building will have residential quarters for the officials and staff.

The meeting decided to ban pasting of obscene posters in the city. The Mayor and the MP, G. Karunakar Reddy, took exception to the letter written by K.C. Kondaiah, MLC, urging the corporation not to take any policy decisions, including extending the lease of the Nagarur Narayan Rao Park to the Coordination Committee for Bellary City Development as the matter pertaining to the continuation of the present elected body was in the court. They said that in the wake of the stay granted by the High Court against the Government Order, the body was competent to take such decisions.
