Under pressure from its councillors, the municipal corporation (MC) has decided to release around ₹8 crore for carrying out specific development works that were earlier stopped due to a paucity of funds.
The decision was taken after the issue was raised by councillors in the last meeting of the Finance and Contract Committee (F&CC) of the MC where they complained that no development work was being carried out in their wards.
Confirming the development, MC commissioner KK Yadav said, “In the wake of the last F&CC meeting, the MC has decided to allow for ₹30-lakh development works in all the wards. The funds will be released only for pre-approved works.”
