The Kerala Vyapari Vyavasayi Ekopana Samithi (KVVES) has demanded that work not be taken up in the Chala market in the name of renovation without a master plan.
KVVES district unit president Aryasala Suresh raised the demand at a meeting convened by District Collector Geromic George in connection with renovation related to the Smart City project.
It was earlier announced that the renovation will include footpath on either side of the road in the market, drains, and ducts for cables and pipelines. However, the meeting began with the view that these works were unlikely to be taken up at present. The renovation should not be limited to road tarring and cleaning of drains, Mr. Suresh said.
