A group of 94 former BMC corporators has written to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, alleging a โ€œlack of transparencyโ€ and โ€œcorruptionโ€ in the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation

Mumbai: A group of 94 former BMC corporators has written to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, alleging a โ€œlack of transparencyโ€ and โ€œcorruptionโ€ in the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation ever since the term of the cityโ€™s 227 corporators ended this March.

The elections to the wealthiest civic body were scheduled for this October but have been postponed on account of the issues of OBC reservations and delimitation of wards pending in the courts. State-appointed administrator and Municipal Commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal is now the lone administrator of the BMC and his writ runs unchallenged.

The lead signatories of the letter included floor leaders of Shiv Sena Mayor Kishori Pednekar, Samajwadi Party leader Raees Sheikh, Congress LoP Ravi Raja, and NCPโ€™s leader Rakhi Jadhav.
The letter stated that aโ€ lack of transparency and accountability, ad hoc and arbitrary transfer, financial mismanagementโ€ has led to the collapse of civic administration and governance of Mumbai.
โ€œNinety-Four former BMC corporators from different political parties, including Shiv Sena, NCP, Samajwadi Party and MNS, have written a letter to Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde, alleging lack of transparency and financial mismanagement in BMC under the rule of state-appointed administrator and municipal commissioner, Iqbal Singh Chahal,โ€ said Opposition leader in BMC and Congress leader Ravi Raja.
โ€œIt has been close to a year now that the term of the corporators has ended and the state government has appointed an administrator. By the time the BMC polls are held, the administrator will complete a year in office holding the dual charge. We are deeply disturbed by the state of affairs of BMC,โ€ said the letter.

Refuting the allegations, BMC commissioner Chahal said, โ€œThere is no lack of transparency as 100 per cent of resolutions pertaining to decisions taken by BMC are transparently available on the BMC website for anybodyโ€™s scrutiny, without exception(since the tenure of Administrator started w.e.f March 8, 22).โ€

โ€œThe financial position of BMC is excellent. The financial reserves of BMC have increased from Rs 77,000 crores in 2020 to Rs 87,000 crore as of today. So, there is no question of financial mismanagement or collapse,โ€ Chahal added.
