Door-to-door survey from today in Bangalore
In Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike limits, 1,200 teams of five persons each, comprising Health Department officials and students, will undertake a door-to-door survey from Thursday to identify larvae-breeding centres and to educate people eliminating mosquito breeding places.
Similar exercise will be replicated in all city corporation limits across the State.
If property owners fail to clear larvae-breeding centres even after the advice, the local bodies have been asked to impose a penalty on them. If the owners they do not mend their ways even after levying penalty, the building licence has to be cancelled, Madan Gopal, Principal Secretary of the department, said.
