The new Core Urban Act will replace the existing GHMC Act.
The Chief Minister stressed that all permissions, fee structure and development works should be finalised as per the Core Urban Act. Reddy made it clear that the development works within the municipal limits will be given top priority in the prestigious 99-day programme to be launched by the state government soon.
Focus on Sanitation and Cleanliness
At the high-level review of the Municipal Administration and Urban Development in the Secretariat today, CM Reddy emphasised that sanitation and cleanliness should be given priority in the Core Urban area ( CURE).
The CM instructed the authorities to identify suitable locations and make arrangements for dumping the garbage in the wake of people who are throwing waste in the open places and causing inconvenience to locals. After establishing garbage dumping points, action should be initiated against those who dump garbage outside the designated areas so as to maintain proper sanitation and ensure compliance. (ANI)
