GVMC Contractors' Association will donate 100 bicycles to contribute to reducing vehicular pollution.
On Thursday morning, the association conducted a bicycle rally in the “vehicle free zone” on Beach Road.
Municipal Commissioner B. Ramanjaneyulu who flagged off the rally and pedalled from NTR Statue to YSR Statue and back complimented the contractors for donating bicycles in spite of their bills getting delayed and becoming a part of environmental conservation.
