I appreciate the CEO Mr Harsha E H promising to look into every project suggested or proposed. Is there a time frame for its implementation? After living in the Cantonment area for almost 50 years, I had yet to see development as promised by past CEO’s. There was always a bunch of corrupt officials and members who cared to line their own pockets. I hope things have changed for the better now.
