AAA Consumer organisation, Coimbatore Consumer Cause (CCC), has written to Chief Minister seeking exemption from building completion certificate for small commercial establishments and local bodies in a few cases for drawing power connection.
In a representation, the CCC’s secretary K. Kathirmathiyon said the State government responding to a Madras High Court order on unauthorised and unsafe buildings by framing the Tamil Nadu Combined Development and Building Rules, 2019 was to be welcomed.
