Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) has disconnected power supply to as many as 240 unauthorised cell phone towers within the GHMC limits.

According to GHMC officials, there are more than 6,000 cell towers under the GHMC which have not taken approval from it and have been identified as unauthorised by the corporation.

Though notices were issued against the operators, they have not regularised the illegal towers. The cell tower companies have been asked  to immediately upload the tower information to GHMC for further action.
