Nagpur. The dates for the general elections of the Municipal Corporation may not have been announced, but due to the tenure till March 4, now only ‘four days of moonlight’ is left for the councilors as public representatives. People are now missing him since his tenure is almost over. This is the reason that some councilors are still seen roaming in the municipal headquarters, but most of them have left the municipality and got busy in the divisions. According to experts, for 5 years, the councilors neither made rounds of the division nor took care of the voters. Alam is that many councilors now have to tell the people of their division ‘I am a councillor’. Due to their position, political parties are getting stressed. According to sources, such a situation has arisen in front of the most ruling party BJP.
still roaming around with files
According to experts, BJP has been in power in the Municipal Corporation for 15 years. Now only a few days are left for the end of the term. Even after this, many councilors are seen roaming around the municipal headquarters with files of development works. It is believed that for the entire 5 years, a lot of development funds were allocated to the BJP councilors. The ‘PAs’ of the councilors remained active in the Municipal Corporation for this, from making the file to the tendering of the development works, while the councilors remained confined only to Bhoomi Pujan. Even Bhoomi Pujan was settled with some workers, due to which the local people do not even know about their councilor even after the development work is done.
The reality is that the councilors never paid attention to the voters, so that even though new works were being done, the daily problems of the people remained the same. People believe that no problem has been resolved regarding basic services, while similar demands were being made for the whole 5 years. The councilors were busy only in new work. Now sensing the mood of the voters, efforts are being made to get the files approved for works like drainage, sewerage, chamber cover etc.
Chairman waiting for proposals
The functioning of the ruling party, which has come to the election mode, is that while the councilors took the approval of the commissioner for the works on the files, the standing committee sat in the chairman’s office for a long time to get that file passed in the standing committee meeting. are. According to experts, funding to the councilors of opposition parties has almost stopped since long ago. Only the councilors of the ruling party are giving green signal to the proposal. Even if the councilor of the opposition party reaches the Standing Committee Chairman with the file, then he has been given a ‘chocolate’ for not having funds in the ‘account’. Due to this, the councilors of the opposition party were busy in the division for the whole 5 years with small problems, which are now benefiting them.
