In separate news, Chennai residents can now enjoy free parking at several designated locations, as the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) has temporarily suspended parking charges. The move comes after the civic body’s contract with the Tamil Nadu Ex-Servicemen’s Corporation (TEXCO), which previously managed parking at ten sites, came to an end.
