According to the Corporation, agencies have installed their own wires and optical fibres in many places, which is not only causing problems due to dangling wires, but an increase in the number of road accidents is also being seen. In light of this problem, the Municipal Corporation has issued strict instructions to all cable operators and relevant agencies.

The full responsibility for this action will lie with the owner of the respective agency.
