Ludhiana municipal corporation pulled up for not maintaining challan records

LUDHIANA: The subcommittee members pulled up the Bhileong branch officials for their careless attitude and negligence towards their duties in a meeting on Thursday. Despite several letters, the building branch officials did not produce the list of revised charges being imposed on buildings in city in all four zones, which invited wrath of committee members. Now, officials have ensured to provide the list by June 2.
Additional commissioner Rishipal Singh and joint commissioner Kulpreet Singh took a meeting with sub committee members, including senior Congress councillor Jaiparkash, Mamta Ashu, Gagandeep Bhalla, Dilraj Singh and BJP councillor O P Ratra. When committee members demanded list, the officials could not produce the same.
Councillor Ashu claimed that several discrepancies are there in building branch and that despite provision of online system, no challan records have been maintained since January. She said she has been asking the list since January, but officials are giving excuses for not submitting the same. She claimed that they will report this matter to local bodies department so that suitable action could be taken against the erring officials.
