Arise, Awake and stop not till the goal is reached

Dear Mr. Vohra, At the outset I wish to congratulate and compliment you and your team dedicated workers who had created a record of sorts in ensuring that maximum people turn out to vote. Your campaign in East Delhi in particular has paid rich dividends and such relentless efforts in every sphere would no doubt bring about admirable results to be adored and applauded! Your and your team's consistent and intensive and sustained campaign calling all East Delhites to come out and vote has now created a record in whole Delhi, as East Delhi has scored over others in record number of turn-out and percentage. Your clarion call and messages through various media have borne fruits and this spirit should be sustained and intensified further to ensure that East Delhi is second to none! Of course, our problems are many. But with the active cooperation and assistance, instead of being critical with negative bent of mind, of all RWAs we could achieve our goals. Your wake-up call "Arise, Awake and stop not till the goal is reached" should ring in every ears and I am confident 'together' we could and we should solve all our major problems and find out amicable solutions to be implemented in phases, in consultation with and active assistance and cooperation of RWAs and our "East Front'' which has also become popular and now widely known in East Delhi! Now is the time, I would like to remind you and your colleagues once again, to collate and consolidate our major problems like carpetting of roads and service lanes, cleaning of storm water drains, pruning of unwieldy growth of trees, better maintenance of parks and create more recreation centres etc. for the elderly, children et. all. This may be done by inviting the major problems of every RWA and compile and handover to the MCD and its newly Councillors for doing the needful on a time bound programme and with total transparency with the assistance of RWAs instead of pleasing 'individuals' who had campaigned for them! Can we do it? I had been posing this question time and again but it appears that no visible efforts has been made in this direction and from this angle! Once again on behalf of the RBECHS/Anand Vihar and on my own behalf, we heartily congratulate and richly compliment you and your team in achieving your aim in an ample measure in the recent elections and we hope and trust that this new missionary spirit and visualization will move forward to solve the major problems of the residents of East Delhi to make it 'better than ever'. This singular achievement will add yet an another feather in East front's cap, which is getting over-loaded! With deep regards and best wishes in all your pioneering efforts, TK Balu Secretary/RBECHS/Anand Vihar Dear Mr Balu, Thanks for your mail. We are gearing ourselves to move forward & faster to resolve the issues of various RWAs, through our East Delhi RWAs Joint Front as well RWABhagidari blog. May i take this opportunity to ask our RWA friends from various areas to mail us a detailed list of civic issues so that these could be taken up by our Joint front. With best regards, B S Vohra

Resident welfare associations divided on effect of Municipal Corporation of Delhi split

NEW DELHI: The MCD trifurcation has emerged as one of the biggest issues in the municipal polls, with BJP leaving no opportunity to criticize it and Congress highlighting it as an achievement of its Delhi government. The resident welfare associations in the city are, however, still divided on the issue. 

The trifurcation has left the capital with three corporations - North, South and East. Delhiites say only time will tell how beneficial the split will be for them. "The Delhi government assures that the trifurcation will improve governance. To improve efficiency, it could have gone for other alternatives like strengthening 12 zones. However, too much of centralized governance can make the decision-making process tough as MCD covers over 94% of Delhi," said Pankaj Aggarwal of Delhi Joint Front. 

Some feel that the trifurcation will benefit taxpayers. "South Delhi has been the highest revenue-generating area but did not witness that kind of development. I am paying tax but my money is used in the areas that don't generate any revenue. In Delhi, one civic body cannot make a uniform development plan as the need varies from area to area," said Monu Chadha, president, Jungpura RWA. 

However, not all share the same enthusiasm. "Trifurcation was hurriedly passed without going into detail. The civic body isn't even prepared and three people will be designated for the same post. Instead of splitting the civic body, steps to strengthen it should have been taken. The Delhi government knows very well that East Corporation hardly generates revenue and after the split, how will it sustain itself? There are so many areas in the east that are deprived of basic civic amenities. No major project can be taken up in these areas as for everything we will rely on the Delhi government. It will add to the financial burden of people," said B S Vohra, president, Federation of RWAs. 

But some residents say even now MCD gets funds from the government. "With the split, MCD will be closer to the people. We expect that now there will be no file delay and work will gain speed. The Delhi government has also assured that trifurcation will not pose a financial liability," said Ashok Bhasin, president, Federation of North Delhi RWAs.
