MC commissioner writes to UT admn to take over city's main sector-dividing roads spanning 262 km

- Mandeep Kaur Narula

CHANDIGARH: Having missed two consecutive road repair seasons amid a debilitating fund crunch, the Chandigarh municipal commissioner has finally knocked on the UT administration's door, urging it to take over the city's main sector-dividing roads (V-3) for recarpeting and maintenance.

The move comes nearly three months after the MC House had rejected the proposal in March, citing fears of permanently losing control over the 262-km road network in question.

Despite strong opposition then, municipal commissioner Amit Kumar has now written to the UT administration to step in to salvage the crumbling roads before another crucial road repair window is lost.
