Mayor, deputy lack co-ordination
Lack of co-ordination between Mayor Sharadamma and her deputy S Harish came to surface at a press conference on Friday.
The Mayor on Friday called a press conference where she unknowingly shared the information which was disclosed at the press meet by her deputy previous day.
When the mediapersons asked her if she had anything new to communicate, Sharadamma was taken by surprise. Leader of the Opposition in the BBMP Council Nanjundappa came to her rescue and said Sharadamma held the press meet after a meeting with Commissioner Shankarlinge Gowda and officials of the Health department an hour ago on solid waste management.
Sharadamma said thee was no irregularities in the use of direct credit or revolving fund system, as alleged by the JD(S) floor leader in the Palike Council Padmanabha Reddy.
She said: “We had called for tenders twice for the solid waste management, but no bidders responded. Hence, the Palike was compelled to give piece works.”
