Report from Kolkata :
Mayor Shobhan Chatterjee has told that he will increase the
amount of fund given to councillors. Initial amount of fund that was given to
Councilors was Rs.20 lakhs. Now it will increase to Rs.25 lakhs.
Total Number of Councillors in Kolkata = 144
Initial fund given to each = Rs.20,00,000
Total fund given to all Councillors
= Rs.20,00,000 * 144
= Rs.28,80,00,000 = Rs.28 crores 80 lakhs (old fund)
New fund given to each Councillor = Rs.25,00,000
Total fund given to them now = Rs.25,00,000 * 14
= Rs.36,00,00,000
= Rs. 36 crores (New Fund from 2018)
Mayor Shobhan Chatterjee told ,”Municipal Corporation will
increase an amount of Rs.5,00,000 in the fund of Councilors for better
development of the Green City Kolkata”.
Earlier all the councillors had asked Mayor to increase the
fund. That’s why Mayor taken a decision on this. Today on 15th March
2018 Mayor will present this report in front of Hon’ble Chief Minister Mamta Banerjee. The
decision that will be made by the Chief Minister will be the final decision.
Here a big question arises . Councillors are taking
Rs.20,00,000 for the area development. But are they working for the city. If we
will see the position of cities then it’s not looking like Rs.20,00,000 is
invested at the place.
Government is investing Rs.36,00,00,000 in the development
of city. This amount is very large. But the face of Kolkata looks like a city
of third class. Now it is very important to take a big step on all these
corruptions happening. Central Government and Supreme Government should also
interfare this.
So what is happening of all the money ? Are they going in
the pocket of Councillors or other Political Leaders. Being a CM of West Bengal
, Mamta Banerjee should take a look on all these.
Before TMC rule , CPM had ruled West Bengal for more than 40
years. After CPM the new party arises that is TMC. TMC is ruling in West Bengal
from more than 7 years. It means that development of the city is stopped from
the last 40 years. If this is really happening then what peoples of West Bengal
are doing ? Why they are not opposing the ruling party ?
More than 90% councillors in Kolkata belongs to the party of
TMC. TMC is the political party in Bengal under the leadership of Mamta
Banejee. Today TMC is in the power and he has right to take any decision
regarding this city.
This will be interesting to know that funds of Councillors
will increase or not. Let’s see What result will come.
Don’t forget to share your opinions on this.
