What they say

S. Sureshkumar

S. Sureshkumar, Chennai Corporation works committee chairman:

The Corporation has taken up desilting of stormwater drains and construction of new ones in several parts of the city.

One problem that we face is that tenders are floated for the renovation of drains but there are few takers due to escalating costs.
