Parking contractor faces LMC heat over anomalies

Familiarise yourself with parking rules issued by Lucknow Municipal Corporation or chances are that the parking contractor may fleece you through misleading information. On Sunday, a citizen, Ajay Kumar, was allegedly manhandled by parking lot attendants outside a mall in Hazratganj when he objected to double fee being charged for parking a two-wheeler. Kumar later informed senior LMC officials who conducted a surprise inspection and found a number of anomalies in the parking lot. Later, violations were also found in parking lots at two other malls— one in Gomtinagar and other in Alambagh— managed by the same contractor.
