CURCHOREM: Curchorem-Cacora Municipal Council (CCMC) on Tuesday started cleaning the choked drainage of the recently renovated fish market.
On Monday afternoon, the rain water overflowed and entered in the market and the area got flooded. CCMC Chairperson Balkrishna (Pinty) Hodarkar had assured to clear the drainage by Tuesday.
Fish vendors also called for installing light fixtures in the shed for the construction of toilets in the vicinity of the market. Meanwhile, they also complained that some fish vendors are still selling fish on the streets despite the council having taken a recent decision against this.
Chairperson Hodarkar said that from Wednesday they will start drive with police protection against such activity. “We have already allotted spaces to them in the fish market and if anyone found selling fish at any other place strict action will be taken including cancellation of allotted spaces,” warned Hodarkar.
