New Corporation Commissioner to focus on grievance redressal
The new Commissioner of the Tiruchi Corporation, N.
Ravichandran, on Thursday said that importance will be given to
redressing grievances of residents.
Shortly after
assuming office as Commissioner of Tiruchi Corporation, replacing N.S.
Prema, who attained superannuation on Wednesday, Mr. Ravichandran said
he would ensure immediate action on public grievances. Officials would
be sensitised to give priority to redressing public grievances.
Besides implementing ongoing projects, he would take steps to improve services of the Corporation to the residents.
Later,
he released draft electoral rolls of Tiruchi West and Tiruchi East
Assembly constituencies in the presence of officials. He distributed
draft rolls to the residents, who visited the Corporation on Thursday.
He asked the voters to check and cross check their names in the voters’
list.
Mr.
Ravichandran held a meeting with M. Geetharani, City Health Officer, and
senior officials of public health department. He took stock of the
preventive measures being taken against dengue and other communicable
diseases and steps taken to prevent mosquito breeding.
Pointing
out the forthcoming monsoon season, he asked the officials to list out
vulnerable areas so as to take pre-monsoon preventive steps to control
mosquito breeding.
Effective steps should be taken on
clusters, where dengue and other cases were reported. Similarly,
awareness campaigns should be carried out to create awareness among
people about the need for destroying mosquito breeding sources.
