Public Works Minister to inaugurate the restoration works today
The major roads along the high-ranges of Pathanamthitta, which have been in a state of disrepair following the prolonged monsoon this year, are finally set to get a major facelift.
Ending a wait that lasted several months, the Public Works Department has finally kick started works on restoring the roads connecting Murinjakal to Koodal Rajagiri, Thanithodu to Karimanthodu and Kaipattoor to Vallikodu. Public Works Minister P.A. Mohamed Riyas will inaugurate the restoration works at three separate functions to be held here on Monday.
Bengaluru saw one of its worst water crises in 2024 with ground water drying up and several parts of the city scrambling for water. With instances like BWSSB supplying treated wastewater to the construction industry, apartments being permitted to sell water from their STPs to the department, and lakes in parts of Bengaluru and neighbouring districts being filled with water from the 33 STP plants in the city, recycling of water became an important topic of conversation during this period.
