By Express News ServiceBENGALURU: The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike ‘sealed’ two houses with tin sheets on Thursday after a resident tested positive for Covid-19. The civic body, which was embarrassed after the ‘tin sheets’ went viral on social media, removed them later. It all began when the residents of a prime apartment complex in Bengaluru found two flats in the complex being sealed down with asbestos sheets. The residents alerted the BBMP Mayor and Commissioner on the ‘sealing’ of the two flats. The engineer, however, tried to defend himself and said the contractor and the ground staff went ahead on the request of the apartment complex residents.
