To increase the effectiveness of the lighting system, up to 37,000 LED lights will be installed in Belagavi as part of the smart city project.

"The road, smart city, and municipal corporation works should be completed on priority," he said as the session is approaching.

Poles have already been put in place as part of the project, and soon LED lights will be attached to those poles. And in a few places, all of the current street lights will be changed.
