MCC to adopt govt software for issuance of trade licences
Mangaluru: The Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC), which previously used its own software for issuing and renewing trade licences, will now have to follow govt's directive and use a uniform software model. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Preparations are under way to implement new software in Mangaluru. The state govt has developed software called 'Vyapar' for issuing trade licences to businesses. Various city local bodies in the state are currently using this software to issue trade licences, and the MCC will also adopt the 'Vyapar' software. Until now, the city corporation developed trade licence software in partnership with private firms. MCC commissioner Ravichandra Naik said following a directive from the state govt mandating uniform software use across all urban local bodies, the MCC is now transitioning to the 'Vyapar' platform developed by the state for issuing trade licences across Karnataka. "The MCC suspended trade licence services, including issuance and renewal, through its old software to comply with the state govt's directive. All trade licence services will be facilitated exclusively via the 'Vyapar' software. Further, it also simplifies the verification process. Instead of multi-step verification, the new software completes the process with a two-step verification," the commissioner said, adding that the new software is introduced to standardise trade licence issuance across the state and improve transparency and efficiency in the process. Traders who want to avail themselves of new trade licences or renew existing ones may visit the website and click the 'Citizen Online Services' tab to avail themselves of the online facility. After clicking the 'Vyapar Trade Licence' tab, traders may submit the applications and pay the required fees online, he said. "Traders may also track the status of their applications and download the licence issued by the MCC using the platform. Requesting all traders to use the new 'Vyapar' software, the commissioner said those holding licences issued through the old software are required to re-submit supporting documents to renew their licenses under the new system. Meanwhile, anyone who applies for a fresh licence must also use the new portal to apply for business licences," he said.

Water crisis persists despite heavy rain: MLA
Mangaluru: Mangaluru City South MLA D Vedavyas Kamath held an emergency meeting with the Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) commissioner and officials regarding various issues faced by the public in the city corporation area, including drinking water problems and disruptions caused by rain. During the meeting, the MLA noted that despite heavy rainfall in the corporation area, the drinking water issue persists. Additionally, due to inadequate desilting of stormwater drains, rainwater is flooding into homes, causing severe hardship for the public. Moreover, those affected by the rain are not receiving any assistance from the corporation, the MLA said. The dilapidated bridge over the stormwater drain near Ballalbagh is causing artificial flooding due to water not flowing properly, and actions need to be taken regarding this as well, he said. The legislator instructed the corporation officials to take these issues seriously, and respond promptly to the public's problems. Complaints are also being received about the mismanagement of waste disposal, he said. MCC commissioner Ravichandra Naik and executive engineer Naresh Shenoy were present.
