Mayor’s mayhem! Gangambike encroaches upon footpath, drain; builds toilet only for the sake of publicity?

Bengaluru: In a case of fence eating the crop, Mayor Gangambike Mallikarjun has built a toilet on the busy road near NIMHANS hospital.  Due to the toilet built on the footpath and small drain, the patients and public are inconvenienced.

Although Mayor defended her decision of taking over the footpath and small drain, the opposition lashed out at her. Former mayor Katte Sathyanarayana says the mayor has set a bad example by doing this act.

As the mayor retires later this month, this decision of hers may backfire as the BJP with a majority is likely to take over BBMP council.
