Transport Dept Officers To Nab Traffic Violators

The Next time you feel the urge to flout a traffic rule, think twice. In addition to the traffic cops keeping a lookout, the Delhi government's transport department will also be waiting to nab you. In a move that is aimed at strengthening the enforcement wing of the transport department, Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit on Thursday flagged off 35 vehicles, which will have six officers each to keep an eye on traffic violators.

The vehicles will remain on roads at strategic points and officers will have the power to take action under various sections of the Motor Vehicles Act.

" These vehicles are a red signal for violators and a step to further contain incidents of over- speeding and accidents. This will go a long way in the strict enforcement of the Motor Vehicles Act and book offenders and take immediate and appropriate action," said Dikshit.

The officials of the transport department are empowered to carry out all that the traffic police do and more.

Water crisis and DJB

Pigeon closes eyes thinking cat has walked away. But when the cat pounces upon i do not know whether pigeon realises its folly or not.
DJB was created thinking what ails delhi citizens on water front shall be cured. The myth has exploded like a bad joke. It is beyond imagination that a part of delhi will be water starved. WATER NOT AVAILABLE EVEN FOR ONE HOUR...and we think ourselves to be advanced city like any other city of the world.
DJB MUST APOLOGISE FOR THIS LAPSE MAKING CITIZENS BEGGARS FOR WATER.
DJB must daily publish in news papers and on tv channels, areas which are water starved and how long this situation will last. Are they loking for rain GOD?
Water harvesting has not been adopted by MCD OR DELHI ADMINISTRATION OR EVEN CENTRAL GOVERNMENT except big ads in news papers.
Let all government run or aided school premises,government offices be used for water harvesting.
Water needs to be brought from adjacent states and it is no use blaming political setups.
CWG are approaching. DJB must act swiftly.

Bhagidari meet of preet vihar area held on 23 rd april 2010

Congratulations SDM PREET VIHAR AND STAFF for organising meeting in an excellent manner and wise decision to allow only ONE PERSON PER RWA TO SPEAK.
Proceedings were tape recorded and hope the points made are acted upon.
Participants including my self pointed out problems duly raised since 2005 and requiring NO FUNDS have not been attended BY MCD,DDA AND DJB.
Formation of action groups of participants along with dy.commissioner staff had been made time and again but not implemented.
Orders of PGC NEED TO BE RESPECTED AND ACTED UPON.
MCD ADMITTED 27 ENCROACHMENTS IN MADHUVAN BUT FAILED TO TAKE ACTION.
This creates a doubt about integrity of MCD OFFICERS IT SELF.
Sh. Ramesh Pandit had introduced a system of marking attendance by safai karamchari in society office.
This resulted into very good sanitation. BUT NOW THIS PLAN HAS BEEN ABANDONED.
Vohra ji, kindly communicate our heart felt appreciation to concerned SDM.

Community Hall Ka Kiraya Ab 50 % Menhga

दिल्ली नगर निगम ने कम्युनिटी हॉल के किराए में 50 फीसदी वृद्धि करने का प्रस्ताव तैयार किया है। इससे पहले निगम विवाह आदि समारोहों के लिए पार्को के किराए में वृद्धि कर चुका है। निगम अधिकारियों के मुताबिक बढ़े किराए से जहां निगम के आय में वृद्धि होगी वहीं आमदनी होने से समुदाय भवनों के रख-रखाव पर खर्च करने में सुविधा होगी। निगम ने राजधानी के विभिन्न समुदाय भवनों को ए से लेकर ई श्रेणी तक विभाजित किया है।

ए श्रेणी के कम्युनिटी हॉल का वर्तमान किराया 10 हजार रुपये है जिसे बढ़ाकर 15 हजार रुपये करने की तैयारी है। इसी प्रकार बी श्रेणी का 5 हजार से बढ़ाकर 7,500 रुपये, सी श्रेणी का तीन हजार से बढ़ाकर 4,500 रुपये, डी श्रेणी का 1,500 रुपये से बढ़ाकर 2,250 रुपये और ई श्रेणी का किराया 500 से बढ़ाकर 750 रुपये करने का प्रस्ताव है।

हालांकि विपक्ष इस प्रस्ताव का विरोध कर रहा है लेकिन निगम में भाजपा के पास पूर्ण बहुमत होने के कारण इसमें बढ़ोतरी तय मानी जा रही है। निगम सूत्रों के कहना है कि जिन पार्को के रट 500 रुपये प्रतिदिन थे उनका किराया बढ़ाकर 4 हजार रुपये कर दिया गया है। इसके अलावा एक हजार रुपये प्रतिदिन वाले पार्को के किराए की दर 8 हजार रुपये कर दिया गया है। पंजाबीबाग स्टेडियम, मानसरोवर गार्डेन, रमेश नगर के पार्को का किराया 25 हजार रुपये प्रतिदिन की दर से कर दिया गया है। समुदाय भवन के किरायों की दरों में बढ़ोतरी इस माह के अंत तक कर दी जाएगी।

एमसीडी के मुताबिक बढ़े किराए से जहां निगम के आय में वृद्धि होगी वहीं समुदाय भवनों के रख-रखाव पर खर्च करने में सुविधा होगी। निगम ने समुदाय भवनों को ए से लेकर ई श्रेणी तक विभाजित कर रखा है।

Revive Encroachment Monitoring Body: RWA

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has failed to control illegal construction and encroachments, says a resident welfare association (RWA) in east Delhi, who has written a letter to the Lieutenant-Governor and sought his intervention in this regard.

The RWA has urged the Delhi High Court and the Union urban development minister to revive the high court monitoring committee, as illegal construction and encroachments have increased manifold even after the assurances given by the MCD and DDA.

The Delhi High Court had appointed a monitoring committee to keep a check on illegal construction and encroachments in Delhi. The MCD had got the committee suspended after assuring the high court that it will not allow any illegal construction to come up. Every fourth house in Delhi is being reconstructed illegally. Fourth floor is being allowed to come up despite the Supreme Court judgement on the issue still pending," said Anil Bajpai, president, RWA federation (east Delhi).

The members said the MCD had turned a blind eye to the rapid increase in illegal construction.

Property Tax

Dear Friends

We must raise the issue of closure of counters for submitting Property Tax at DC office /Zonal Office Building in Vishwas Nagar behind KKD courts. Only one centre in Geeta Colony is not at all sufficient for whole East Delhi. If not in each MCD ward, there should be a property tax collection centre in each Assembly Consituency.

Parents Say Won't Pay Hiked Fees,Ask Schools To Form PTAs Consult Them Before Raising Tuition Fees

Last year parents held numerous protests against what they called an `unjustified hike' in school fees

To try and rein in rising school fees, parents of students of 30 city schools on Sunday decided not to pay the hiked fees for the new session. Parents gathered at a meeting called by the All India Parents' Association (AIPA) on Sunday, following the latest guidelines issued by the directorate of education (DoE) on April 16. The DoE guidelines now make it mandatory for a school to get the consent of its Parent Teacher Association before the school-managing committee approves any hike in the fee.

According to AIPA, parents will not pay any hike in the fee for the new session, which started this month, unless every school forms a valid PTA and takes its consent before hiking the fee. Schools have invariably increased the fee by 15% to 20% at the start of the session even though such a hike is unnecessary in most cases.

We have now decided to pay the same fee as before and not the hiked amount, said Ashok Aggarwal, national president, AIPA. Aggarwal added, ``Parents of nearly 30 schools were present in the meeting, including Summer Fields School, Kailash Colony; Air force Bal Bharati, Lodhi Road; Green Fields School, Safdarjung Enclave; Ramjas School, Anand Parbat; Sachdeva Public School, Rohini; Vishal Bharti School, Paschim Vihar; Navy Children School, Chanakyapuri and others on Sunday morning which went on for almost two-and-a-half hours. We will make other parents also aware of this decision. DoE's fresh guidelines have given us a legal backing. If schools take any action against the parents, we will move court.

CITIZENS AND THEIR SECURITY

On 20th april 2010,around 2pm, mrs.rastogi(Resident of 83 Madhuvan new delhi 110092) was on her way to fetch children as usual from the bus stand near the entry gate of society. Motorcycle borne youths pounced upon her,snatched her chain and ran away in full view of security guard and other ladies.
This is not an isolated case.
FIRS are lodged but cases remain untraced. Society who charges enormous money every month from all residents remain unconcerned. The plea is that this is an individual case and let the individuals take up.
The police has also got the stock answers. Sample a few;
1.Why you wear gold chains? You are encouraging such incidents.
2. Have you noted down motor cycle registeration number.
3. Yes registration number is noted. But it is a fake number plate.
You can add N number of such bhanaas.
Manu samrti directs raja to protect property and life of citizens of the state.
Raja has no right to collect taxes if raja fails to protect.
Our problems are manifold. CITIZENS HAVE NO SAY. Bloggers their duty done after blogging.
Nothing tangible is achieved if we FAIL to monitor even one thana in transyamuna.
Let us pick up only one category, collect data and monthly meetings are organised.
I remember my EAST OF KAILASH DAYS.
As a president of EAST of kailash, we used to organise such meetings and area councillor,Member LEGISTATIVE COUNCIL and officers concerned would also be present.
VOHRA JI, KINDLY LEAD YOUR FLOCK.
