Join us to confront, and assess your corporator in month-long drive.
Worried about rising civic problems in your locality? Is your area representative too preoccupied to pay heed to them? Here is your chance to speak up and jolt the system. Ahead of the civic polls, DNA kick-starts ‘My Locality, My Voice’, a campaign to assess your corporator’s work and make every vote count.
Beginning this Sunday, the month-long interactive session will be organised in every administrative ward in the city. The campaign will begin from Mulund (T-Ward). The interactive session with the civic representative will give you a forum to raise all such issues pushed to the backburner.
The campaign will see activists, political leaders, students and residents debating development issues.
Praising the move, municipal commissioner Subodh Kumar said, “The campaign will provide a platform to people to interact with their representatives. Several important issues are highlighted in such forums, which needs immediate attention.”
Mayor Shraddha Jadhav said, “Such an interactive session with area representative is very crucial. Such face to face dialogue doesn’t happen often. In majority of the cases people only know the party and corporator’s name. This forum will help them connect with their leader instantly.”
Calling the campaign innovative, Citizen’s candidate Bhaskar Prabhu said, “Political parties should be made to state their agenda and what they intend to do for their respective wards so that people know what will be delivered. The voters can make up their mind accordingly.”
Former municipal commissioner DM Sukthankar said, “It will be a good move to articulate issues that are relevant to the ward and put them across to candidates/political parties who will stand for elections.”
City’s first citizen corporator Adolf D’Souza encouraged people to participate in the campaign. “Citizens should make the most of it and not turn it into a corporator or political party bashing event.”
