Co-ordination committee meeting cancelled

MUMBAI: A co-ordination committee meeting which was suppose to take place on Monday after a long wait of five years was postponed for the want of a new government resolution (GR) to include the deputy chief minister and the guardian minister as part of the committee.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) which has been pressing for a meeting of the coordination committee (Samanvay Samiti) headed by the Chief Minister for the last five years has chalked out 38 important issues that need attention from the state government.

The BMC in the meeting will be demanding that the state pay the outstanding dues worth over Rs 2000 crore, coastal regulatory zone clearance for the proposed pumping station at Guzderband, expedite work on the already delayed bridged on the Middle Vaitarna dam, to pursue the state government to give permission for the Gargai dam project, the hydroproject at the Middle Vaitarna site amongst other long pending projects.

"The meeting was cancelled due to some administrative issues. It has been rescheduled for the next week,"said a civic official.

The committee, which also includes secretaries of various departments, civic officials, mayor, municipal commissioner, corporators, officials from MMRDA and other public agencies, was expected to meet regularly to discuss and resolve infrastructure-related issues and pending and ongoing projects.

The Shiv Sena-ruled BMC has been accusing the Congress-NCP state government of ignoring its various attempts to hold the meeting to resolve civic issues.

Mayor Sunil Prabhu said one of the crucial issues was of the Rs 2,264 crore the state government allegedly owed BMC in the form of grants, aid, local taxes refund, property taxes and sewage and water supply charges.

Mayor has demanded a separate lane for fire brigade, police and ambulance on all major roads and also a helipad to deal with disaster situations. There are a few issues related to the BEST undertaking also.
