15 Cr tender has been cleared by the standing committee of BMC for the maintenance of the penguin enclosure at Byculla zoo for three years.
It was in 2017 when the Humboldt penguins were brought in the zoo from Seoul, South Korea in order to push tourism development.
The Shiv-Sena led panel approved the tender even though it was slammed by the opposition party citing that the maintenance cost was too high.
