The chief executive officer of IT Parks is entrusted to look into the matter of subsidising the electricity tariff, Vijayan said.Moreover, the requests of tenants/clients who have taken land on long term lease from the IT Parks to be given up to six months of additional time for commencement or completion of buildings, over and above the deadline as per agreement and concessions on penalty in this regard, will be evaluated and recommended by an expert committee.( With inputs from ANI )
