Siliguri, 07th September: Several allegations of fraud in the oil used in the vehicles of SMC since the Left’s period surfaced. To tackle the issue, Global Positioning System (GPS) has been installed in 80 vehicles of Siliguri Municipal Corporation.
Addressing the media, Goutam Deb, of Siliguri Municipal Corporation, stated that though various initiatives were taken in the past to address the matter, nothing has been implemented. “This time, such fraud will not be tolerated,” Deb asserted.
The SMC administrator further said that this GPS has been installed in 80 vehicles to prevent any scam. Apparently, with the help of the system, the SMC will be able to track the vehicles. This initiative will also help SMC reduce the cost.
