While the city continues to deal with parking woes, escalated parking fines, bad roads, closed bridges and so on, corporators seem to have nothing more than renaming on their minds. After plastering roads, gardens, hospitals and crematoriums with names of their favourite people, corporators have turned their attention to parking lot names.

Activists have slammed the move saying corporators should instead focus on providing good roads, education, and health. An RTI query had revealed that the corporators raised more questions about naming and renaming infrastructure and landmarks year after year than about basic issues faced citizens.
