BENGALURU: Bengaluru Central City Corporation Commissioner Rajendra Cholan directed officials to complete the ongoing white topping works in Shivajinagar division on a priority basis.
The commissioner took a two-wheeler along various roads within Shivajinagar limits on Thursday, inspecting potholes, ongoing white topping work, pothole repairs, roadside waste dumping and other civic issues.
He instructed officials to ensure quality pothole repairs and expedite the completion of ongoing white topping work. He also emphasised the removal of encroachments on footpaths and the clearance of unauthorised cables laid across roads.
