Civic body to seek expert opinion on water seepage

The Tiruchirappalli City Corporation is likely to seek the expert opinion of the National Institute of Technology-Tiruchi to figure out the reasons for water seepage on a small portion at Thevar Hall, which houses a number of shops and business establishments.

The decision has been taken after the officials inspected the hall constructed and maintained by the Corporation. A portion of a sunshade at the complex fell down on Sunday.

Claiming that it was a minor incident, a senior official of the Corporation said that it could have fallen down due to seepage of water.

Steps would be taken to carry out repairs and maintenance.
