VMC to involve local community in decision making
A working group of local elders, slum dwellers, and knowledgeable persons to be formed
Very soon you can prioritise the requirements in your locality. The
Vijayawada Municipal Corporation is contemplating involving the local
community in deciding the requirements and priorities. A working group
of local elders, slum dwellers, knowledgeable persons and retired people
who have expertise will be formed in due course.
The corporation
has begun a study on Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of the services
being provided to the citizens. The O&M of water supply, roads,
Under Ground Drainage (UGD), street lighting, health care etc were being
studied. A comprehensive data on O&M is being collected. A route
map and guidelines would be formulated based on the outcome of the
study.
