Telco to face action for digging up road

A telecom firm that allegedly dug up the road near Jayamahal Road is held accountable for its mistakes, with the mayor directing the joint commissioner (east zone) to initiate action.

Mayor M Goutham Kumar, who visited the spot on Sunday, said the telecom major had not only damaged the road near Coles Park but also damaged the water lines. “Work on laying underground cable should be stopped immediately,” Kumar added.
