GCC Website Lacks Updated Project Details
People in Chennai are upset because the city's official website doesn't have up-to-date information about important projects like road repairs and park development.
This makes it hard for them to know what's happening or to complain if something goes wrong.
Some people say this is a problem because it's not fair or transparent.
They want the city to fix this so everyone can know what's going on.
The city says they are trying to improve the website.
Residents and activists in Chennai have raised concerns over outdated or missing project details on the GCC website.
Project information, including timelines, costs, and contractor details, is often incomplete or not updated.
Activists argue that lack of real-time updates undermines digital governance initiatives and transparency.
Property tax payment details and floor-wise information are also reportedly missing from the website.
GCC officials acknowledge the issue and are working to improve data uploads and transparency.
