The Mysuru City Corporation council on Friday gave its consent for piped gas supply in the city which had run into rough weather over concerns by a section of the elected representatives.
But it was not a smooth affair as the council meeting was held amidst pandemonium and ruckus created by a section of the Congress members on the grounds that the tenure of Mayor Sunanda Palanetra of the BJP was over and any decision taken would be infructuous.
A section of the members also questioned the basis on which the Budget was presented on Thursday as the tenure of the Mayor was over. But MCC Commissioner Lakshmikanth Reddy and other officials cited various provisions of the rules under which the meeting could be held and refuted the arguments.
