BJP alleges unscientific construction of canal on Thrissur’s Kuruppam Road

Party accuses Thrissur Corporation of pursuing a flawed project that inconveniences traders and the public

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has staged a protest against what it claims is the "unscientific" construction of a canal on Thrissur's Kuruppam Road, a major road in the city. BJP leader Raghunath C. Menon accused the previous Left Democratic Front (LDF) council of keeping the road closed for over six months without addressing their concerns, and now alleges that the current United Democratic Front (UDF) council is spending nearly ₹2 crore to construct concrete slabs over the canals, causing inconvenience to traders and the public.

The BJP warns that if the Corporation continues with these development works, they will lead stronger public protests with traders, industrialists, and local residents.
