Thiruvananthapuram: Minister VS Sunil Kumar has said that the ‘Operation Break Through’ project will be implemented soon to solve the water problem in Ernakulam district. Meanwhile, the state government will seek special permission from the state government to start work as the lockdown is continuing in the district.
“The Operation Break Through project and the annual maintenance of the Corporation are being jointly implemented. The government has issued directives to identify the hot spots in the area and take immediate action in those areas. The minister said the work would be sanctioned only in the backdrop of Kovid in terms of social distance and sanitation.
However, corporation officials had earlier said that the project would be cut short due to a lack of funds. The project ‘Break Operation Break Through’ was launched in October last year following a severe flood in Kochi.
