  "summary": "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 17-km-long Edappally-Aroor bypass, which caters to over a lakh passenger car units daily, is feared to become a bottleneck once the NHAI completes the six-laning of the rest of NH 66 in Keralam by 2028. The CoRWA meeting aims to address the shoddy condition of this crucial national highway corridor and the delay in commissioning the metro extension.",
