CoRWA summit to discuss NH 66 bypass woes, delay in Kochi metro’s Kakkanad extension

The 13th conference of the Confederation of Residents Welfare Associations (CoRWA) will be held in Kochi on November 14-15, with discussions centred around the inadequate public infrastructure, particularly the Edappally-Aroor NH 66 bypass and the delayed Kochi metro’s Kakkanad extension.

The CoRWA meeting aims to address the shoddy condition of this crucial national highway corridor and the delay in commissioning the metro extension.
