Mayor Sunil Uniyal ‘Gama’ stated that the Municipal Corporation of Dehradun (MCD) is likely to hold second board meeting by the first week of June.
After a gap of nearly three months, the second board meeting will be organised to expedite pending works and pass proposals.
It is pertinent to mention that the first meeting of the present board was held on February 28 in which nearly 87 proposals were passed.
However, the work on majority of proposals did not start because of the model code of conduct which came in force by March 10.
Nearly for three months the tenders process and appointments in MCD along with various other works regarding street lights and releasing councillors fund were stuck due to the model code of conduct.
These works are likely to start after the board meeting.Addressing the media on Tuesday ‘Gama’ said, “As the Model Code of Conduct was active for nearly three months we were unable to do anything in particular.
There are some schemes which were put on hold like appointments of new staff in the MCD and many others which restricted us to do something new.
As the Model Code of Conduct will finally be over by May 23 we will look forward to enforcing the work of MCD.”
Adding more in this he said, “The plan for the second board meeting is under process and we are working on it.
It is likely that it will be held in the first week of June. We look forward to implementing all the proposals we have passed in the first board meeting.”
