<span style="color: #222222;">Maharashtra's Sangli is known for its finest quality of turmeric. Based on this, the Sangli municipal corporation has decided to go one step further to brand the city with the yellow colour of turmeric.<br />''<br />''AIR correspondent reports that the turmeric produced in Sangli has given a distinct identity to the city over many years. The golden spice has even made its mark on the world map with its rich legacy of 125 years. In order to retain this identity, the Municipal Commissioner of Sangli Nitin Kapadnis has come up with an idea which entails that the municipal corporation buildings and government establishments in the city will be all painted with yellow colour.<br />''<br />''This apart, it is also expected by the civic authorities that even the residential apartments be painted yellow so as to popularize turmeric crop more and to establish a unique identity of the city. The initiative will surely give a further boost to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's clarion call for 'local for vocal' and will also provide a larger market to produce nationally and internationally.</span><br />
