CMC Commissioner outlines roadmap for better Cyberabad civic services
A new city department called the Cyberabad Municipal Corporation, or CMC, has started working in Hyderabad.
It takes care of a big area where many technology companies are located.
The person in charge, Ms. G Srijana, shared the group's plan for the next year.
She says keeping the city clean is the most important job.
The CMC wants to track trash from every home using special QR codes.
It is also fixing roads that were damaged by heavy rains.
The team found 54 places where water collects during floods and is working to fix them.
They also plan to stop people from building houses without permission.
The CMC has already collected about 550 crore rupees in taxes this year.
The newly-formed Cyberabad Municipal Corporation (CMC) aims to strengthen civic services and improve accessibility and accountability for residents.
Commissioner G Srijana lists sanitation, traffic management and stormwater management as top priorities for the corporation's first year.
CMC plans to buy new vehicles and introduce a QR-code system to track and weigh household waste, with Ramky handling waste treatment and disposal.
The corporation has identified 54 waterlogging points and is working with GHMC on a stormwater master plan for the CURE area.
CMC has raised about Rs 550 crore under the Early Bird Scheme this financial year and expects a total outlay of around Rs 1,100 crore.

“Citizens can expect greater access and accountability. Since the Corporation is smaller than the erstwhile GHMC, we can be more accessible to people through channels, such as the My Cure app, Prajavani, social media, and news reports.”
