Mayor inaugurates water supply scheme
Mayor S.M. Velusamy on Wednesday inaugurated a water
supply scheme that will benefit residents of R.G. Nagar, Jai Nagar and
Bharati Park. According to sources, the Corporation had installed a
generator and laid a new pipeline as part of the scheme to supply
Pilloor water to Sirvani water-fed areas.
The scheme
was a part of the Corporation’s proposal to divert Pilloor water to
Siruvani water-fed areas to overcome the water shortage.
The generator will power the motor at the Kannappan Nagar sump to pump water to the aforementioned areas during power cuts.
The sources said that the civic body would be able to pump around 12 million litres a day to the areas.
At
the inauguration function of the water supply scheme, Commissioner G.
Latha, Chairman, Central Zone, K.A. Adhinarayanan, Executive Engineer K.
Sugumar and Councillors Venthamarai S. Balu, and M. Gunasekaran were
present.
