East Corpn to probe illegal mobile towers

NEW DELHI,: Once again the Standing Committee of East Corporation has asked its officers to start inquiry into the illegal mobile towers which has been increasing day by day. Twice earlier, the committee had asked for the same but officers did not pay any heed due to which there is an increase in the number of illegal mobile towers.

A councillor, Sanjay Kaushik, said: "I had raised the issue of illegal mobile towers in the area twice earlier and had demanded their sealing but the officers did not listen to me." East Corporation Commissioner, Mr S Kumarswamy, said during the unified Municipal Corporation, 880 mobile towers had been installed of which 590 without permission. "We are looking into the matter and soon we will take stern action against illegal towers," said Mr Kumarswamy.
