Tiruchi: Corporation Councillor O. R. Shriraman (CPI) has appealed to the Corporation authorities to purchase sprayers and fogging machines for all the 60 wards from the civic body fund and use them to check mosquito menace.
In a representation to the Corporation Commissioner, Mr. Shriraman, said that mosquito menace which was prevalent in all the 60 wards was the main cause for viral fever and other diseases.
He said 60 sprayers and an equal number of fogging machines should be purchased and used by the sanitary workers of the respective wards in order to eradicate mosquito menace. A resolution should be adopted in the Council in order to buy the machines as soon as possible for the benefit of the residents, he said in the representation.
