The MCD constituted the cell on Sunday and a public notice in this regard was issued on Tuesday.

The officials said appropriate action will be taken on each complaint.

According to data provided by the MCD, 29 complaints were received on Monday while 31 were registered on Tuesday.

''We received 60 complaints in the first two days of the formation of the Corruption Complaint Cell. The complaints are being examined individually at the level of senior officers and appropriate action would be taken on each one,'' a senior MCD official told PTI.
