Trichy corpn to relay 115 km of damaged roads at Rs 80 crore
Some stretches will also get new stormwater drains, and the work is expected to be completed before the northeast monsoon in October 2025.
DMK councillor V Porkodi of Ward 63 raised concerns over incomplete UGD work in her ward and the poor condition of roads. In response, Mayor Mu Anbalagan said Rs 67.9 crore had already been sanctioned under various schemes—including the Tamil Nadu Urban Road Infrastructure Project (TURIP) and the Central Finance Commission (CFC)—to relay 107 km of roads.
"A tender has been floated, and construction will be completed in two months," he said.
An additional Rs 12 crore has been allotted to lay 8 km of roads with stormwater drains under a separate phase.
Of the 50 resolutions passed in the council meeting, a proposal to outsource maintenance of the Oyamari and Karumandapam crematoriums drew opposition from a section of councillors, including the CPM. The mayor said he would consider their demand to retain control over the crematoriums.

Why is Pakistan angry with Turkey president Erdogan? Cancels Rs 77355450000 drone deal with Ankara due to..., now demanding...
Why is Pakistan angry with Turkey president Erdogan? Cancels Rs 77355450000 drone deal with Ankara due to..., now demanding... Many countries see Pakistan as a nation that cannot be fully trusted and now, even Turkey, once a strong friend, has faced the same bitter truth. Turkey had always supported Pakistan, especially during difficult times but despite this friendship, Pakistan has backed out of a massive drone deal worth USD 900 million (about Rs. 7,735 crore). This was a big defence agreement where Pakistan agreed to buy high-tech drones from Turkey. Turkey even sent 100 to 200 drones to Pakistan as part of the deal. But after the drones were tested, things didn't go as expected and that's where the trouble began. Turkish drones failed against India When Pakistan tried using Turkey's Asisguard Songar drones during tensions with India (during Operation Sindoor), they were easily destroyed. India's defence systems quickly shot them down. Some drones crashed in open fields, while others were blown up in the sky. This made it clear that Turkey's drones were not effective against India. Pakistan walks away from the deal After this embarrassment, Pakistan decided not to accept the remaining drones or continue with the deal. Despite already getting support from Turkey, Pakistan refused to pay and rejected the drones, calling them low-quality. This incident has now become another example of why many countries don't trust Pakistan as it accepts help when in trouble, but turns its back when things go wrong. Even Turkey's President Erdogan, who tried to act as a big supporter of Pakistan, was left shocked by this betrayal. Why Pakistan no longer trusts Turkey? Pakistan has lost trust in Turkey, and here's the latest proof. A big batch of drones that Pakistan had ordered is now ready and waiting in Turkey, but Pakistan refuses to accept them. This has upset Turkey's Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and Defence Minister Yasar Guler, who even travelled to Pakistan to fix the issue. They tried to pressure Pakistan to take the drones and stick to the USD 900 million deal, but Pakistan made its stance clear that it does not want to buy what it now calls 'low-quality equipment.' Pakistan told them, 'If you have a better deal, let us know.' Pakistan now wants Bayraktar TB2 drones What Pakistan really wants now is Turkey's advanced Bayraktar TB2 drones, which are more powerful and widely used in modern warfare. Pakistan is trying to get those instead and wants Turkey to include them under the same deal. But Turkey doesn't seem ready to do that just yet.
