The ‘Clean Andhra Pradesh’ (CLAP) project aiming at ensuring cleanliness and beautification of the entire State will be launched on August 15 marking the Independence Day, Minister for Municipal Administration Botcha Satyanarayana said here on Monday. Inaugurating new buildings constructed at a cost of ₹1.48 crore on the premises of the Vizianagaram Municipal Corporation, he sought the cooperation of the people to make the project a grand success. Referring to the move to increase the property tax and users charge for collection of garbage, Mr. Satyanarayana said, “More than 5,000 vehicles will be deployed for collection and transportation of garbage. Property tax hike will not be more than 15% of the existing tariff.” Accusing the leaders of the opposition parties of misleading the people over the issue, the Minister said the government would conduct awareness programmes in the limits of all the civic bodies.More Related News
