Visakhapatnam : A number of issues were discussed during the council meeting of the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation on Wednesday.
The corporators brought to the attention of the Mayor that there was no development in the past five years and there is a need to solve their problems.
The council meeting which began on Tuesday was adjourned to Wednesday amid protests by the members of the NDA and YSRCP.
During the zero hour, the corporators across the corporation limits spoke about the problems in their respective wards. A majority of council members raised issues of streetlights, roads, canals, poor sanitation and violations related to town planning.
Responding to the members’ issues, Mayor G Hari Venkata Kumari requested the GVMC Commissioner P Sampath Kumar to submit a progress report on the issues raised by the corporators within 15 days.
