- Announcement can be made in the budget meeting this month
Nagpur. Due to the cancellation of OBC reservation in local bodies, the recognition of 16 members in the Zilla Parishad Nagpur was canceled. In the by-elections held before the Vip elections, the ruling Congress has come out stronger. Due to the cancellation of membership of OBC members, where the post of vice-chairman had also become vacant, the seats of members of all subject committees also became vacant.
After the election results, where Sumitra Kumbhare has been made the vice-president, she also has the responsibility of health and bandhkaam committee. But the appointment of the members was not done in the committees after the code of conduct for the elections was put in place. As soon as the code of conduct was over, a special meeting was to be organized under the chairmanship of JIP President Rashmi Barve on December 13, but that meeting had to be adjourned.
Because the members were adamant about appointment in the committees of their choice. It was then decided that the members would be appointed in the next general meeting. Now the budget meeting of JIP is to be held in this month of February. The subject of appointment of members in the subject committees will also be kept in this budget meeting.
Had to cancel the special meeting
Perhaps for the first time in the history of the Zilla Parishad, only the members of the Congress, which was in power with an absolute majority, remained adamant in their insistence and did not even listen to the president and their leaders. In the general meeting held on December 13 for the appointment of committee members, the members did not appear even after being called and due to lack of quorum, Speaker Rashmi Barve was forced to adjourn the special meeting.
Because some members of the ruling party were adamant about the demand for their appointment only in the Maldar committees like Standing Committee and Bandhakam Committee. Efforts were being made to persuade him from 9 am to 4.15 pm but things did not work out. He did not attend the meeting and the Speaker had to cancel the meeting.
Not even listening to ministers
On the same day at 9 am, an all-party meeting was held under the chairmanship of Congress District President Rajendra Mulak, in which discussion was held on which committee would be given to which member by the Congress. But some members caught the demand of the committee of their choice. He was also tried to be persuaded by the Speaker but no hearing took place. Then Animal Promotion Minister Sunil Kedar was also present but the stubborn members did not listen to him either.
Here, two seats have been reduced in the by-election of the ally NCP, due to which the quota of membership in the committee has also been reduced, but the demand for not reducing the quota was made by the NCP. The BJP had fixed the names according to its quota. The matter is stuck on the demand of the adamant members of Congress and NCP.
differences emerged
Differences have emerged in the Congress regarding the appointment of members in the subject committees. Despite the power of absolute majority, the meeting had to be canceled due to the insistence of the Congress members. It is discussed that even after persuasion by Mulak and Kedar, it is surprising that the members do not believe. There are 3 factions of Congress in rural also and the members of those groups are adamant on the insistence of membership in Maldar committees also.
In the auditorium, only the formalities of the election were yet to be completed, but the members had boycotted in a way. Now in two months whether such disgruntled members have been celebrated or not, it will be known in the budget meeting to be held this month. Everyone is waiting for the date of the meeting.
