Successor BS Prahlad focuses on rain preparedness
BENGALURU:
BBMP’s East zone chief engineer BS Prasad retired on Thursday after 35 years of service.
“I am satisfied what I have done for Bengaluru’s development. Engineers work under tremendous pressure but despite that they have to dedicate themselves towards betterment of society,” Prasad said at a valedictory function organised at the BBMP East zone office.
East zone joint commissioner KR Pallavi felicitated Prasad. Executive engineers MG Hegde, Maradi Rangappa, Mohan Gowda and Lakshmanappa also spoke.
Prasad served as chief engineer of the East zone for over six years. He handed over charge to storm water drain chief engineer BS Prahlad, who will hold additional charge of the East zone.
Prahlad, soon after taking charge of the East zone, reviewed the rain preparedness. He told the executive engineers to be prepared to tackle rain-related issues.
