To cite a few, ‘I am not getting my khata from MUDA despite several visits,’ ‘MCC officials have turned a blind eye to buildings with blatant violations thus inconveniencing neighbours’ and ‘Wine stores were running a minibar on pavement keeping tables and chairs’ were the complaints of the public.
