“During this period, the corporation has received huge demand from the public for sanitising their areas,” a GMC notification stated on Monday.
“GMC will try to meet up the request and cover the maximum possible areas within our jurisdiction,” it added.
GMC sources informed that even though they did not have any plans earlier to cover the bylanes due to dearth in manpower and machinery, however, as requests in large numbers have poured in they have decided to cover the by-lanes as well.
