The Mayor participated in the ground-breaking ceremony for laying roads at Arisipalayam Main Road in Ward 27 at a cost of ₹1.30 crore. The Mayor later inspected the desilting of water bodies at Suramangalam and in the Hasthampatti zone and instructed the officials concerned to complete the desilting work before the start of monsoon season.
Later, the Mayor inspected road laying works at Sri Ram Nagar in Ward 6 at a cost of ₹90.36 lakh and checked the road using equipment about the quality of the work.
