The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) fined a TRS leader on Friday for installing flex boards of newly elected Mayor Vijayalaxmi Gadwal across the city.
The Enforcement, Vigilance and Disaster Management (EVDM) wing of the GHMC penalised Telangana Rastra Samiti (TRS) leader Atish Agarwal, who had arranged huge flexes and banners congratulating the mayor.
The matter was brought to attention by a Netizen, who, referring to the flexes set up at Banjara Hills area, tagged the concerned authorities of the GHMC on Twitter.
Hello @Director_EVDM @CEC_EVDM, Can you please convey Mr. Atish Agarwal “special thanks” on behalf of the first citizen for dirtying the city! @GadwalvijayaTRS Location: Himayatnagar X Roads @KTRTRS @SomeshKumarIAS @SmitaSabharwal @arvindkumar_ias pic.twitter.com/L4FfjJqtqy

Following the tweet, the EVDM authorities brought the flexes down and charged Agarwal a fine of Rs 2 lakh.
The Mayor responded positively to the action and said, “I am welcoming it. People will respect the rules when the makers follow it.”
