The Kolkata Municipal Corporation will henceforth grant water connection to building upt0 five-storied height even without completion certificate, Mayor Sovan Chatterjee said today.
He said the decision to make this effective in a month's time was taken at an Mayor-In-Council meeting this afternoon.
The meeting further resolved to undertake dredging of canals crisscrossing the city to decongest in the wake of onset of monsoon.
A meeting will take place in this connection with Irrigation minister and his department officials soon, the Mayor said.
