"manholes"

GWMC authorities have also ordered a comprehensive probe into the death of a person after falling in an unprotected manhole in the Kirti Nagar area

Taking precautions, the authorities installed safety grills over more than 22,000 manholes in the city and those on the main roads have been sealed and marked red to indicate danger.

HMWSSB Managing Director Dana Kishore asked the officials to repair all the manholes in two lane and four lane roads to match the road height

Speaking after flagging off three new vehicles bought by the GHMC in Patancheru, the MLA Gudem Mahipal Reddy said sanitation workers used to have problems desilting the manholes manually.
