The Kozhikode Corporation Council will further discuss the draft policy for transit-oriented development (TOD) in the city as part of its efforts for inclusion in the Scheme for Special Assistance to States for Capital Investment under the Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT).
Deputy Town Planning Officer Gireesh Kumar presented the proposal before the council at its emergency meeting on Wednesday and explained the changes needed in building regulations for TOD to be implemented.
However, UDF and BJP members demanded that the proposal be thoroughly studied and discussed before approval.
