Bengaluru: The Bengaluru Central and East Corporations have scheduled to hold an intensive mass cleanliness drive on Saturday.
While the East corporation plans to cover a total of 20 km between 6 am to 10 am, the Central corporation has proposed to cover about 13 km during the same period.
The stretches identified are: TC Palya Main Road from Ramamurthy Nagar Bridge to Bhattarahalli (8 km) and State Highway 35 from Varthur Kodi Junction to Kadugodi Bridge (12 km).
This shows the corporation has picked the worst-maintained stretches for the cleanliness drive.
On TC Palya Main Road, drain and footpath improvement work is underway, but the slow work has created more trouble than help.
The Central corporation has planned the drive on important stretches in Shanthinagar, C V Raman Nagar, Shivajinagar, Gandhinagar, Chickpet and Chamarajpet.
