HYDERABAD, Aug 19: District Nazim Kanwar Naveed Jamil has directed the department concerned to remove the speed-breakers on the roads, which he said created hurdles for smooth flow of traffic and draining out rainwater.

He said during a visit to 1334 call centre established by the district government to receive people’s complaints that people should give correct address while registering complaints to get their problems solved.

He claimed that the centre did not receive any complaints during recent rains about accumulation of rainwater in any area of the city and directed the officials concerned to take action against owners of domestic animals that were creating nuisance by spreading dung on road and disturbing traffic.
