Halted Projects Taken up at General House Meet


Nominated councillors of the MC, on Friday, complained that proposed projects were lying incomplete. The issue was raised during the meeting of the General House. Due to the code of conduct, no development agenda items were discussed.


Nominated councillor, Brig K S Chandpuri said that he had been demanding that the quota for ex-servicemen in Class 3 and 4 posts be filled. “Even though the Centre has approved the posts, recruitment is not being done,” he said. Mayor Ravinder Pal Singh Pali stated that permission was still awaited from the Administration on the issue.


Brig Chandpuri also complained about the proposed international stadium which has seen no construction eventhough it has received approval from the MC


Councillor Dr Pam Rajput stated that the project of Mahila Bhawan should be completed at the earliest. The proposal was mooted in the beginning of this term, but no construction has been done.


Dr Pam Rajput, while recalling the past five years in the House, said that the atmosphere of acrimony that was created should be avoided in the next term. “Decisions should not be taken on party basis,” said the doctor.


With the polls due next month, accusations were hurled by elected representatives. Councillor Harjinder Kaur said that work for carpeting roads was stopped in her ward after a complaint was made due to political considerations. Chief Engineer S S Bida said that the work would be started soon.


It was decided that the MC will be starting a pilot project for garbage collection from Sector 22. The details will be worked by the Finance and Contract Committee. Source:http://www.indianexpress.com/news/Stalled-projects-taken-up-at-General-House-meet/880687/
