EMPOWERMENT OF RWA's

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi issued Guidelines for installation of security gates in Colonies in June 2007. As per the Guidelines, the office bearers of the respective RWAs have been made fully responsible and accountable for any mishap due to colony'ssecurity gates. All security gates have to be manned by guards to be hired by the RWAs.
All these responsibilities have been arbitrarily thrust upon the RWAs without any empowerment. RWAs have no source of income; funds have to be collecrted from the residents. It has beenexperienced that many of the residents do not pay, and the RWA has no authority to force them to pay. This issue has been raised by us as well as several other RWAs in various meetingswith the Hon'ble Chief Minister several times. But, no success so far. We don't know if someone, someday would consider this legitimate long-pending demand of the RWAs!
