Municipality’s directive to residents

The city municipality has asked residents to remove all useless materials in the empty places and streets. It also advised them to remove immediately materials such as tyre, plastic tea cups, coconut shells, broken mud pots, traditional stone wet-grinder and water-logging areas as they serve as breeding grounds for mosquitoes that spread dengue and chikungunya virus.

Commissioner R. Chandrasekaran said in a press release that if the residents failed to do so as soon as possible, such articles would be removed swiftly by the Puducherry Municipality without notification.
