"Neither the KSRTC nor the district administration can decide on parking without TDB's sanction. Such matters should be inspected and approved by the high-power committee," TDB president P S Prashanth told TNIE.

The proposal was discussed during a review meeting chaired by District Collector S Prem Krishnan. The meeting was held to assess preparations for the upcoming Sabarimala Mandala-Makaravilakku festival.
