The Opposition councillors in the Thrissur Corporation protested by carrying empty pots and placards against the severe drinking water crisis in the city on Wednesday during the council meeting.
Both the protesting Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) councillors carried placards reading “Give drinking water” and “Stop corruption” and sat on the floor of the council hall.
“The Mayor is silent when the city is reeling under a severe drinking water crisis. Many parts of the city have not gotten water for many days,” said Congress councillor Lally James.
