The agency has to remit s 20, 000 per junction to the municipality per month. Annually the municipality will get a revenue of Rs 28.8 lac every year from these 12 junctions. Municipal officials explained that if any lacunae or complaints are received in the signal lights maintenance, the contract with the agency can be cancelled.
