This Union government’s directive on the banned beacon was issues to all ministers, legislators, Member of Parliament and other political dignitaries. But Mahadeswar claims he has received no government circular seeking the removal of the beacon. “I have not received the Government Regulation which states that a mayor also has to adhere to the new set of rules. My car still has a beacon but it is duly covered. Also, until I receive an official GR, I will not remove it.”
