The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation has made a civil application to extend the Kamal Mehta committee's time till December 2010.
The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has made a civil application to extend the Kamal Mehta committee's time till December 2010. Tuesday was the last day of the Kamal Mehta committee to submit its report on the civic problems of the city.
The high court appointed committee's role was to examine issues related to illegal construction, parking problems, drainage, quality
of roads and fire safety in buildings.
The committee has urban development principal secretary, Ahmedabad municipal commissioner, CEPT University associate director, joint commissioner of police (traffic) and Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (Auda) chairman on its board. "There are many issues. Once we identify them we will have to look for solutions, check their feasibility and then implement it. It is not possible to prepare a report for each problem in such a short span of time," the source said.
"So we have filed a civil application to extend it till December." Whether the committee will be granted an extension will be decided on Wednesday in a court hearing, said the official. The buzz in the civic body is that the extension has been sought so as to avoid a ruckus before the civic election.
"It would create a problem if the civic body has to demolish illegal constructions in posh areas during election. It is believed that an extension will give the BJP ruled civic body a major respite," said a source.
