City clock stuck
The clock fork of the clock tower, built at Ajni Chowk on Wardha Road at a cost of about 50 lakh rupees, is stuck for about one and a half years.

Not only is the clock of the clock tower lying closed, weeds have grown in the premises. It is full of dirt and garbage. The concerned department is not understanding the need to do even cleanliness here. Citizens say that it should be started at least before the arrival of the new year.
